However, I’d be willing to hedge it’s never just one thing or another.ĭisney World has increased prices lately (and defended those increases), it’s added costs with services like Genie+, it’s hot in Florida in July to begin with (though that usually doesn’t deter families), there has been a lot of talk about the company’s policies in recent months, and then travel was a problem over the Fourth of July weekend and more. Over the last couple of months, Disney crowds have slowly been dropping, and economic downturns in general may explain why the Fourth was not a great day for theme parks. So, it wasn’t just the Disney Parks that saw fewer crowds than usual.īlog Mickey shared a graph showing that rides only averaged a 24 minute wait on the holiday, continuing a trend that had started in the spring when the outlet first noticed attendance began dropping in the parks.
Inside the Magic reports that crowd attendance was also at a record low at Universal Orlando over the holiday. Some blogs have mentioned DeSantis’ current legal battle with Disney World as one of the reasons behind the crowd woes but it’s worth noting crowds were sparser than normal at other theme parks in the Orlando area. Reports about the travel industry at large have also indicated there were a lot of travel woes for families attempting to travel during the holiday weekend. Sure 4th of July fell on a Tuesday this year, which may have impacted when families were in and out of the parks (particularly as some had to work on the 3rd even with the 4th off). Other Theme Parks Also Reported Lower Than Average Crowds
