Anyone know when the best time is to go to Epcot for the least amount of attendance?

January and February are great times, warm and not too hot either. I went once in Jan. and the plane was literally half empty! I took a whole row and laid down to sleep!

My personal fav is October. Still nice weather and crowds are reduced.

Jan and Feb are probably the slowest times, but weather is cool and can be very cold at night.

^I too have heard that October is a great time to visit EPCOT/WDW. Crowds are very low, the Food and Wine Festival takes place, and of course, Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. I'm trying to plan my trip next year in October

Unfortunately I've noticed the crowds have been increasing in late October over the last few years. That is traditionally when I go every year. I think it's due to the popularity of the Wine and Food Festival. I may have to change to a slower time of the year. I do have to admit though that the weather is great then. Who knows, maby early December, I think I read somewhere that there is a Subsonic Meet about that time of the year. Hmmm!

Last time I was in Disney it was in Mid October, I thought it was not overly crowed and at night the temps for us never got blow the 70's.

touringplans.com has a crowd chart that is said to be very acurate at predicting crowds AND telling you which day is the best day to visit each park. We are using to plan out our June trip. I hope it works!
