Anything going on that will make crowd level high the last week of Nov and the first week of Dec ? Trying to pick dates for trip. Thank you

This years Cheer/Dance competition is Dec 7 - 14 so you may want to be out before they arrive.

And the Christmas Day parade is taped the first weekend of Dec (Dec 6-7) which makes MK nuts those two days.

And Pop Warner & Cheerleading will be there for the week beginning December 4th.

This is a great time to visit, right after Thanksgiving. Through our research over the years, most sites will rate this week as either the #1 week to travel to Disney or top 3.

We have a trip planned this year again. We usually arrive on Saturday after Thanksgiving, and use that day to get settled, hit the pool, go to Downtown Disney for dinner. On Sunday crowds begin to thin some, and by Monday it is great. No park is really crowded that week, but we usually follow the method of going to a park after it had PM extra magic hours the night before for even smoother crowd levels.

We then head home the following Saturday.

One other note, last year we were at the MK when the Christmas parade was being taped (we did not realize that). As we arrived we panicked thinking we really messed up, but once you navigate past Main Street the rest of the park was empty. Many people were around the parade route, but we just avoided it and were fine.
