Planning a trip to the enchanting world of Disney World can be both thrilling and challenging. One key to a successful and stress-free visit is choosing the right days to explore each park with minimal crowds. To help you navigate this magical journey, let’s explore the best days to visit each Disney World park.
Magic Kingdom on Tuesday, Thursday or Wednesday
Many people begin their Disney vacations on a Sunday and will choose to head straight to the Magic Kingdom bright and early Monday morning. This is one reason to avoid Mondays, if possible. Magic Kingdom often sees the fewest crowds on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Wednesdays. Choosing any of these days gives you a substantial advantage in terms of shorter lines, less congestion, and an overall more enjoyable experience.

Epcot on Wednesdays
Whatever day you choose, don’t skip Epcot. Often this park gets a reputation for not being family or children focused. I completely disagree! Between the rides, the shows and the food, there are so many wonderful experiences to be had at Epcot for your whole family. 
Even our youngest Disney fan looks forward to our days spent in Epcot. This park is best enjoyed on Tuesdays and Thursdays when the crowds are lighter. These days provide ample opportunities to immerse yourself in the World Showcase and Future World without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
