August is the Perfect Time to Plan your Disney World Vacation if You Like Low Crowds
If low crowds is a priority when planning your next Walt Disney World vacation, then August is the month to go!
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. That’s why I have a few photos to share from the Magic Kingdom this bright, sunny day at Walt Disney World in mid-August.
Take a look! Where are the crowds?
There’s not even a long line at the famous Spring Roll cart as you head in Adventureland.
There’s a little more “congestion” as you head into Adventureland towards the Flying Carpets of Aladdin attraction but definitely not that bad.
I don’t know about you, but these are the perfect level of crowds I like to see when I go to Walt Disney World.
Liberty Square is always a popular area in Walt Disney World. On most days, it’s pretty much wall to wall people. But, not today!
It’s not just today that the crowds are low in the Magic Kingdom and Walt Disney World. For the past several years, wait times and crowd levels have been low all around Walt Disney World in the month of August.
The main reason for the low crowds at Walt Disney World in August is that many kids around the country have already returned to school. Where I live, students have been back in school since August 1!
While the temperatures might be a littler higher in August at Walt Disney World, you’ll still find touches of Fall in the air. Mickey’s Not So Scary Party events are already underway and the Magic Kingdom is definitely ready for the new season!
The crowds seem to stay low at Walt Disney World throughout August until you approach Labor Day Weekend in September. But once Labor Day Weekend wraps up, the crowd levels really start to go down for a few weeks as pretty much all kids around the country are back in school.
Historically, crowd levels start to pick up again at the end of September and stay on the higher end through the holidays with some exceptions here and there.
