PHOTOS! Get a Look at the Holiday Weekend Crowds in Disney World!

Christmas has come and gone, but the holiday season isn’t over just yet!

EPCOT

As the crowds continue to make their way to Disney World for New Year’s to welcome the beginning of 2021, we’re giving you a look at the crowds we have spotted following Christmas Day in the parks!

EPCOT

As guests entered the park, EPCOT was a bit on the quiet side with no lines to enter the parking lot. However, the attraction wait times pretty much matched what we’ve normally seen in Disney World on the weekends.

Mission: SPACE had only a 5-minute wait for the Green Mission, while there was a 55-minute wait for the Orange Mission.

Also in Future World, Test Track had a 65-minute wait.

The World Showcase also had a few pockets of crowds in some areas…

Even though the Festival of the Holidays is still going on, there were very few lines at the food booths…

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

It was a somewhat normal day over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios as we were able to enter the park without a long line, which was far less busy than we’ve usually seen on the weekends.

Magic Kingdom

Meanwhile, the wait to enter Magic Kingdom was VERY long! It started all the way back on the freeway as we slowly made our way closer to the signage…

However, once guests finally made their way into the park, the crowds weren’t quite as busy!

The Christmas decorations made us want to continue celebrating the holidays all weekend long…

Guests who wished to have their photos taken waited on distanced markers…

Compared to the other parks, the Magic Kingdom seemed to attract more guests who wanted to celebrate the holiday weekend with their family and friends.
