I love going during Easter! I don't mind the crowds and love the extra activities in the park. Go when the park opens, take a break in the afternoon, and back to the park late afternoon for the evening. Have a super time.

We have gone this same week ( second week in March)for 4 out of the past 5 years. It hasn't ever been too bad. It is crowded on the weekends. Luckily, our Spring Break has never been the week before or after Easter.

I wonder if the park will close like it did back then?On Thur (tkgv) and Friday, the DL gates close and we were told that you could not get back in if you left. We didn't leave until we were absolutely finished for the day! We did fine using the FP though but it was packed just walking and trying to eat!
Originally Posted By momof4boys Ugh! We have been there with the cheerleaders before. The really bad part was the shuttle ride and elevators with them doing cheers the entire time! At least we are staying walking distance this time and won't have to worry about that! We were there one time on Thanksgiving day and the day after. It was horrible! I have never seen crowds like that. I sure hope it isn't that crowded!
