Easter 2012 at Walt Disney World

EASTER 2012 AT DISNEY WORLD

2012 Easter crowds (and prices!!) at Walt Disney World will hit a very high peak in the week beginning March 31, 2012, and be as high for most of the week beginning April 7, 2012.

Try your best to avoid Walt Disney World during these two weeks.

For specific 2012 Disney World Easter events (as they are announced)–ranging from where to find the Easter Bunny at Disney World to Easter Sunday services at Disney’s Contemporary Resort–see this page on MouseSavers.com.

For off property Easter services, see this for places of worship near Walt Disney World.

At Walt Disney World itself, typically Easter services are held in the Fantasia Ballroom at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny greet kids at the Magic Kingdom, and Epcot has Easter Egg hunts.

In addition, many Walt Disney World resort hotels hold “candy scrambles” Easter morning.

Check with your resort when you check in for more details.

Spring Break 2012 at Walt Disney World

THE 2012 SPRING BREAK SEASON AT DISNEY WORLD

The spring break season at Walt Disney World begins a few days before Presidents Day and extends through the week after Easter.

In 2012, that means from February 16th through April 14.

Crowds will be high from February 16 through February 25, and again from March 10 through April 14.  They will be good in late February, early March, and the second half of April.

For the gory details on crowds, see 2012 Spring Break crowds.

Prices will be very high during the same periods that crowds are high, peaking the weeks before and after Easter, and will be high during the lower crowd periods.

For more details on these prices, see 2012 price seasons.

2013 Weeks to Visit Walt Disney World, Ranked in Order

OVERVIEW: 2013 WEEKS AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

(First draft, to be revised in summer 2012)

This site recommends arriving at Walt Disney World one of the first three Saturdays after Thanksgiving.

If you can’t go then, presented below are the weeks of 2013 in order of best to worst.

The week rankings are based on the current drafts of my 2013 Disney World Crowd Calendar and my projections for 2013 Walt Disney World price seasons, as well as other factors.

As information becomes available on actual 2013 price seasons and school year calendars (typically in the summer), I’ll update these week rankings.

There are two pages of 2013 Disney World week rankings. The page you are on has recommended weeks. The  second page has the rest of the weeks of the year, and is here. [Read more →]
