Use this helpful guide to familiarize yourself with November crowd levels at Walt Disney World. We cover crowd levels, weather, frequently asked questions, as well as Resort booking windows.

EPCOT’s International Food & Wine Festival takes place early in the month which will obviously increase crowds at EPCOT. Other than that, we recommend visiting any other time of November while avoiding Thanksgiving if you want to avoid the heaviest crowds.

Use this crowd calendar to save time and money by finding the perfect time to book your trip.
