It’s another holiday at Disney and you know what that means — CROWDS!

Oftentimes, long weekends, school breaks, and holiday seasons like Halloween and Christmas can be jam-packed in the parks. We’ve seen some decent Memorial Day weekend crowds in the past, so let’s check in on the crowds from this year!

Sold Out

Just as a general note, today is a sold out day in Disney World. All Park Pass reservations are in fact sold out for all 4 parks for theme park tickets guests, resort hotel guests…

…and Annual Passholders.

So let’s take a look at those crowds!

Magic Kingdom

We’ll start in Magic Kingdom. To get on the monorail to Magic Kingdom, things were rather busy this morning.

You can see the crowds of people waiting to get on and head to the Most Magical Place on Earth.

Over at Magic Kingdom itself, things were packed in some places, but not as bad in others.

Right past the entrance, there was a pretty big group of people.

The Main Street, U.S.A. area was decently busy (as it tends to be)…

…but over in Liberty Square, it was a ghost town (appropriate with the Haunted Mansion nearby!).

Though Haunted Mansion had a posted 35 minute wait, it didn’t look too terrible.

Overall, the crowds felt pretty manageable. Our reporter shared that it didn’t feel anywhere near the levels seen back during Spring Break.

We did see some pretty long lines over at Big Thunder Mountain Railroad…

…and Splash Mountain.

In terms of wait times, at around 2:15PM, there were some things still at a 5-10 minute wait…

…others at longer waits, like 30-35 minutes…

…and, unsurprisingly, some of the popular rides had waits above an hour, though only 1 ride was above 100 minutes at the time.

So overall it was certainly busy, but not nearly as packed as some other days we’ve seen.

EPCOT

At EPCOT, the front of the park had some decent crowds…

…and the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind area was CROWDED.

The Creations Shop and Connections Cafe area was also pretty busy.

But beyond those 2 popular spots, crowds in the park were pretty dispersed.

We didn’t feel too packed in or crowded in many places.

But ride lines were still quite long. We saw a particularly long line near Frozen Ever After.

At around 2:15PM, there were some rides with 10-20 minute waits…

…but some of EPCOT’s most popular rides had waits over an hour, including Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at 120 minutes!

Overall, things were pretty busy in some spots…

…but there was room in other places.

Hollywood Studios

At Disney’s Hollywood Studios, there were still some rides with shorter wait times at around 2:15PM…

…but quite a few were OVER an hour, with Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at the top with a 135 minute wait, and Tower of Terror not far behind.

Animal Kingdom

Finally, things at Animal Kingdom were sort-of similar. Some rides had a lower wait time…

…but the majority of the rides had wait times exceeding 30 minutes as of 2:15PM.

So there you have it — a look at the crowds on Memorial Day. Stay tuned to DFB for all the upcoming holiday season updates!
