August 2016 Disney World Preliminary Crowd Calendar

January 17, 2016 ~ Less than a minute read13 Comments

This is what we’re looking at for August 2016. Click to enlarge or view as a prettier PDF. And if you don’t know what the numbers/letters mean, read the top of this post. The full operating schedule is available here.

The first three weeks in August continue the same trends that we saw in July with above average crowds and temperatures. Things begin getting better in week four and then crowds drop significantly headed into September. Those that can put off their trip until the Wednesday after Labor Day will enjoy the lowest crowds of the year.

    Would you happen to know what Sep 1, 2 and 3 would be like yet? We will be there that last week and it is harder to plan not knowing the last 3 days. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated

      I’d say check the 2015 September Crowd Calendar for the best estimate.

      I’d probably look at June-Aug calendars and go from there. But crowds will generally be low anyway, so you’re still relatively safe enough.

      That’s what I’m wondering. I hope it’s going to be added.

    Also, only one parade per night? When did the 11:00 parade stop? We’ve been to Disney, in late August, the past two years and there were two parades.

    This site has its a small world closing late August for rehab, but no other site on internet indicates this, is it a mistake?

      I’m wondering too. It’s a must do for our family,. I also saw it on touring plans, but no where else.

    I’m rarely surprised by the calendars but did they just switch around all of the EMH this year? With the exception of last August we go the same two weeks every year and had a routine that always agreed with your recommendations. It looks like our normal would be terrible this year as most of our past best parks are now the worst. Did they totally change them or was I oblivious to my plans being stupid the last trip?

      They switched a lot of the EMH days this year, don’t worry, you were oblivious last time!
