If you ask ten different people what’s the best time of year to pay a call on Disney World, chances are you’d get ten different answers. I haven’t had a chance to ask ten different people what their opinions are on the best time to go to Disney World, so I’ll go ahead and just give you my opinion on when the best time to go to Disney World is.
Autumn in Orlando
You often hear about autumn in New York or a weekend in New England (yes, okay those are titles and I’m borrowing them shamelessly), but autumn in Orlando is my favorite time of year to go to Disney World. I’ve been there three times in autumn and the weather is always great that time of year. Yes, it may rain, but the rain is usually warm and you can still wander through the parks and enjoy many of the attractions despite the rain.
The temperatures are comfortable, but not excessively hot. Mornings can be cool and crisp with the heat of the day holding off until afternoon and then cooling down again by evening. I’ve never been to Disney World in the summer, but considering how hot it gets here in Texas – I’m not that eager to discover the temperature in the middle of summer in Florida.
Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party
Another great perk of going to Disney in the autumn includes attending the Magic Kingdom’s special events such as the Not So Scary Halloween Party. Trust me, it’s an experience to get all dressed up and trick or treat your way through the park as well as visiting the rides. I know there are other evening celebrations during other parts of the year – including the Christmas parties (November & December) and the Pirates and Princess party (that’s coming in August). I’m reserving opinion on those.
What’s your favorite time of year to go to Disney World? Please answer, I need at least ten different people to base my survey on!
