Hi Samantha,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thank you for asking us a question to help you plan your family’s first visit to Walt Disney World Resort!
My little guy starts kindergarten this year (eek!) so we’ve been pretty lucky to be able to travel whenever we want. If you can handle the heat, my absolute favourite week to visit Walt Disney World Resort is the week after Labour Day. Although I’m not sure how much cheaper this week is compared to other weeks (though it is considered “low” season), what I absolutely loved about visiting in early September is the fact that there were relatively few people visiting the Theme Parks.
Of course, there really doesn’t seem to be a slow season at Walt Disney World Resort anymore, due in part to popular events such as the
Epcot International Food & Wine Festival and the fact that word seems to be getting out about the best times to visit. But, if your travel calendar is completely flexible, September really is a great time to visit!
I hope this helps you plan your upcoming vacation. Please don’t hesitate to come back and see us if you have any other questions!
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
