March Spring Break Crowds at Parks
Wondering how the spring break crowds are going to be for the week of March 26. We never visit in March but due to other travel and our annual passes running out have planned this trip and wondering if it was a mistake. Looked up College Spring Breaks before booking and it looked like most were the week of 3/12 and 3/19 but I am seeing from other posters that the crowds (and park times show this too) are heavy. Ugh. What other spring breaks are going on besides colleges, is this southern states as most Northeast colleges were the week of 3/12. Please advise, thanks!

Maybe I shouldn't inquire about who is on spring break but just how the crowds are this week and next? I know March is traditionally busy but Northeast schools are in session over the next two weeks. Let us know how your visits have been this month, thanks!

Speaking from past experience fairly to very crowded. It will not matter where you go, there will be lots and lots of people.
First trip August 1975
Honeymoon trip Sept-Oct 2010
ºoº It all started with a Mouse.
Your trip is what you want it to be and it will turn out just how you want it.

We just got back. Had a great time! Crowds we heavy, but no where near as bad as we expected. Weather was nice and breezy. We would get to the parks early and ride (or have FP already ) for most of the major rides before the crowds arrived. In the afternoon the wait times for major rides at MK were 2hours. We would leave and hang out in the pool, then go back in the evening. Have fun!

I think we had the best luck in Hollywood Studios. it seemed like that park had the least crowds. It was almost like summer crowds and weather too. Very hot during the day. I would suggest making a plan of what you really want to see and do. as the day got later it seemed better (crowds), so we hung out and hit the parks later in the day. Let all the early birds get in and out ..lol..
Have a great time regardless
Just dress comfortable and wear sunscreen
P.S. Even the ghiradelli line was out of the store (at night) almost to the seating area across the way in Downtown Dinsey..
What she said We were just there the 11th through the 15th and it was super crowded. Hour plus waits for most things. FP's were for hours and hours later or out.
Seriously I used to be able to leave just before the fireworks and at least drudge myself through Main Street in MK, but it was wall to wall people and you could barely move. Plus they made an exit "behind the scenes" of Main Street to let people out. But it was TORTURE just getting over there.
Though we had a good vacation, both DH and I said next year we'll go at the end of Jan/early Feb and just take some days off work to avoid the budding spring break crowds. And our passes don't even black out until March 31st. It was crazy.

Haha! We left MK right as MSEP was finishing on main street. (we were coming from JC). I though it was the SMOOTHEST exit I have ever had from the parks!!!! What day were you at MK? We were there Fri.
I have done the behind the scence exit before. Yeah, that is not fun.

We were there on Monday the 12th. Someone in the crowd yelled "Good Luck, we tried too" as we were trying to get through.
I honestly didn't realize it was that way or I would have gone around the park through Tomorrow Land to exit. My son has SPD and anxiety [he's 5] and he was in the stroller wigging out, having an anxiety attack with people right there in his face and so close. Fun times!
But I will admit, it was cool to see "behind the scenes" at the same time!
