A BUSY DAY

If you'd been here on a day like this,
you'd have needed a plan to get on the headliners.

Dec 26, 2025 came in at a 7/10, the kind of day where Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry can eat two hours of your morning. Crowds held steady around a 7 from open through close.

12 PM to 10 AM
Early entry or bust

On a busy day, missing rope-drop means a brutal wait for Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry all morning.

11 AM to 1 PM
Treat lunch as a ride

You'll queue for food too. Use that time on a sit-down with a reservation.

2 PM to 6 PM
There is no afternoon dip

Waits hold steady through close. Live wait alerts earn their keep here.

8 PM to 12 PM
The last 90 minutes is the only window

Headliners finally ease late. Skip dinner, stay late, eat after.

Every ride, by land.
