Why We’re Worried About Going to EPCOT on January 12th

January is a very BIG month for Disney World. 

EPCOT

Why? Well, in several ways, things are going back to the way they were BEFORE the pandemic closures. So, for the first time in almost four years, people will be flocking to the parks for the return of the Disney Dining Plan, unlimited park hopping, and lack of park reservation requirements for most tickets. All of this will take place on January 9th! While all of that is cool and all, something happens on January 12th that we think should be a holiday. Let’s talk about it.

January 12th marks the first day of the 2024 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts! Yep, it absolutely should be considered a holiday. It’s one of our favorite festivals!

There’s all sorts of great food, activities, and merch, and since there are SO many cool things to do and experience, we can expect something not so cool to happen. There will probably be some CROWDS.

2023 Crowds

We almost always see some pretty intense crowds on the first day of festivals, and this will probably be no different. So, if you’re planning on visiting EPCOT on January 12th, just make sure to manage your expectations, cause you might experience longer waits than usual.
