Orlando is one of the worlds top tourist destinations. This means that at times it gets very busy and crowded. If you are thinking of visiting theme parks and restaurants then missing the busiest times is advisable. Orlando is great fun when it is peak season but you need to be okay with long lines and vast crowds.

when not to go


Christmas to New Years

The very busiest time of the year in Orlando is the week between Christmas and New Years day. The combination of holiday period, warm weather, and special parades and events draw huge crowds.

Easter Holidays
Second to Christmas are the two weeks either side of the Easter Weekend. As this holiday moves around it is worth checking when it falls.

Thanksgiving
The start of America's Christmas Shopping season is also the third busiest time to be in Orlando, making this long weekend at the end of November a very crowded time.

The Summer (June, July, August)

Although the first week of June and last week of August are a little better, the whole of these three months is a very busy time in Orlando. Additionally, the summer brings the hottest temperatures of the year, making the long time waiting in lines at theme parks more frustrating.

All other American national Holidays
For all holiday weekends that do not fall in the above categories you should also be wary of the huge crowds. Presidents Day is probably the most notable due to the pull of Orlando in the Winter.

when to go
