PHOTOS: This is What Disney World Looks Like for the Holiday Weekend!

Good morning on this beautiful day in Disney World!

EPCOT

Prior to Christmas, we gave you a look at the crowds we saw in the parks on Christmas Eve, which were lower than expected!

Now we’re back at the parks to see what attendance looks like the weekend after Christmas!

Right before noon, Spaceship Earth had a 30 minute wait time as guests headed to the attraction right as they entered the EPCOT.

The rest of EPCOT has been fairly quiet, with fairly average wait times. There are even spots that look quite empty!

Out of all the parks, the one that has been the most bustling is Magic Kingdom, but even the iconic park hasn’t seen particularly eye-catching wait times.

Out of all the parks, Magic Kingdom definitely looks the most crowded — but certainly not too crowded when taking into account it’s the weekend after Christmas!

Perhaps the most surprising is over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, which is the park that has had some of the most hard-to-get Park Pass reservations.

We started the day off well with a 15 minutes wait on Rock n’ Roller Coaster…

…though that had quickly become a 45-minute wait by the time we were off! Still, the wait times have been fairly manageable. Slinky Dog Dash was 50 minutes, which isn’t abnormal to see for the popular ride on a regular weekday.

The park definitely was prepared for higher crowds, with Municiberg open to deal with potential line overflow.

But, with the addition of plexiglass on many rides, capacity has gone up, and wait time has gone down. For example, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway was at only a 30-minute wait!

As expected, Galaxy’s Edge was one of the most crowded areas of the park, with Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run extending its queue backstage in order to account for the 70-minute wait.

We’ll keep you updated throughout the day with all the crowds you can expect to find in Disney World for the holidays!
