2020 Disney World Crowd Calendar

While 2020 doesn’t have a lot of new attractions scheduled to open at the Disney parks, there are a few exciting new things that will affect the crowds. The re-imagination of Epcot being the largest theme park transformation in Disney’s history. Here’s what you can expect to see in 2020:

• January 2020, the France pavilion in the World Showcase at Epcot will open a new Beauty and the Beast singalong.
• Feb 2020 brings a whole new way to dine with Space 220 restaurant located near Mission Space in Epcot.
• Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, the first attraction at DW to feature the pair will open in the Chinese Theater at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on March 4, 2020.
• The American pavilion in Epcot has a new fast-casual restaurant, Regal Eagle Smokehouse, rumored to open by March 2020.
• “Harmonious” will debut at Epcot in Spring 2020 as the largest nighttime spectacular ever created for a Disney park.
• Summer 2020 will bring Chef Remy’s kitchen antics to the France pavilion at Epcot.
• La Crêperie de Paris will also open at Epcot this summer.
• Continuing with the Epcot transformation, 3 new films will open at the Canada and China pavilions, as well as The Land.
• Toy Story Land Round-Up Rodeo is opening sometime in 2020 at Hollywood Studios.

It’s also important to point out Galaxy’s Edge opened at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in late summer 2019, however, the second ride – Rise of the Resistance only opened in December of 2019, bringing quite the crowd of fans! Trust me – it’s incredible what they’ve done over there, and the newest ride is amazing!

So while I’d love to say this Disney World crowd calendar reflects all parks, I would lean on this more for Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom crowds this year. Hollywood Studios is still expected to have large crowds throughout the year, and Epcot has a majority of the park updates, plus festivals that run practically year-round making it hard to gauge the crowds.

So if you’re looking for the best months to visit Walt Disney World in 2020 that have low crowds, as a local I’d have to recommend late April, early May or the month of September.
