How It Works

Tickets: Estimates use adult and child prices from Disney’s website. Check current prices and reservations before buying.
Crowds: Our crowd outlook uses forecasts informed by past crowd patterns and observed park wait times to estimate Manageable or Busy conditions. These are predictions, not measurements of future attendance or exact waits.
Your score: A proprietary formula weighs these signals with your selected rides, experiences, and ticket access to find days that fit your visit.
Experiences: Tracked closure notes and entertainment outlooks inform the score. Selected shows are labeled Expected, Unknown, or Unavailable. Expected shows use seasonal or weekend patterns; daily schedules are unverified. Unknown schedules reduce scoring confidence. Party-night limits reflect regular admission, and shows may change or be cancelled.
Weather: Weather can change a day’s appeal. It is not yet included in these park scores.

2026 seasonal beta: calendars cover October–December 2026. Dates beyond this window are not yet available.

Source checks: ticket prices for October 13–December 31, 2026 verified October 12, 2026. Earlier dates retain historical prices. Crowd forecast inputs dated September 28, 2026. Scoring rules updated October 14, 2026. These dates describe separate checks; a scoring change does not mean the source data was refreshed. Prices and schedules may change.
