Hey there, Tamie!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I happen to know a thing or two about being an adult who acts like a kid! Disneyland Resort is such a fantastic vacation destination, because it satisfies the young and young at heart in so many ways. Whether you crave thrills, delicious treats, reliving childhood memories, meeting your favorite Characters, or enjoying fantastic entertainment, there really is something for everybody.
I would say there isn't a "best" time to visit the Disneyland Resort as each month offers different experiences and unique ways to enjoy the parks. This is why I visit so many times during the year! As you take a look at the handy
monthly planning guide online, you can get an idea of which season best fits your needs. If lower park attendance is your main priority then visiting on weekdays in the fall and winter months (except during holidays) or mid-April to mid-May (except during spring break) may be your best options. Keep in mind that during these times, though, park hours may be shorter and more attractions may be closed due to refurbishment. You can always view the
Daily Events Schedule up to 6 weeks in advance to check entertainment schedules as well as attraction refurbishments.
Some of the more popular times to visit offer impressive holiday offerings like during Halloween Time or the festive Christmas season. These months are when you can experience the Disneyland Resort with dazzling decor, themed eats, and even Characters and attractions transformed for the occasions.
No matter when you visit, I know you are going to have a magical time while leaving your worries behind. Please return if you have any other questions, and have a Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah day!
