The attendance decrease likely won’t be as pronounced this year, as there’s already been a summer slowdown as “revenge travel” has died down. The August off-season also brings with it the start of Halloween at Magic Kingdom ( yes, really) and the park will soon be decked out with pumpkins on Main Street for the 2023 Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.Īs soon as Halloween ends, the holiday season and the 2023 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party season begins! Beyond Halloween and Christmas, a ton is happening and changing at Walt Disney World–there are new attractions, nighttime spectaculars, and other additions on the horizon in both 20, as well as the Disney100 Celebration at EPCOT.
This ushers in the start of the fall off-season, one of the reliably uncrowded times of year at Walt Disney World. The latest update comes as the summer tourist season is starting to wind down as families prepare for school to go back into session.
