Proof That We’re Not Lying About Spring Break Crowds in Disney World

If you’re on vacation in Disney World right now, you’re not the only one!

It’s Spring Break season, baby! The week leading up to Easter and the week following Easter are some of the most crowded days of Spring Break season, and the people have definitely shown up in Magic Kingdom in full force. Let’s take a look!

We took a lap around Magic Kingdom on the morning of Tuesday, March 31st to see what the crowds were like, and boy were they a little overwhelming. Here’s a shot of Frontierland with everyone heading to their next to-do list item!

Tomorrowland wasn’t much better! There are several popular rides in this land, and visitors were hustling all over to get to them. You’ll probably be doing a good bit of bobbing and weaving if you’re in the parks today.

Wow, PEOPLE

Speaking of popular rides, Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin soft opened early after its lengthy refurbishment. We spotted the ride open over the weekend, but it looks like the soft opening is continuing today! Keep in mind that during a soft opening, the ride is not guaranteed to operate as normal.

Buzz was open!

When we stopped by, the wait time was 45 minutes. That’s honestly not too bad, especially for the crowd levels today! The ride will officially reopen on April 8th.

Even in the middle of the morning, Main Street, U.S.A. was pretty packed! This was past the rope drop rush, around the ideal arrival time for those who slept in during their vacation.

Crowds on Main Street, U.S.A.

We went up on the Main Street, U.S.A. Train Station to get a POV from that direction, and things are just as busy from this angle! Work continues on the repainting of Cinderella Castle this morning, so you may want to wait until later in the day to grab a castle photo — nobody wants the equipment in the background.
