A BUSY DAY
If you'd been here on a weekend like this,
you'd have needed a plan to get on the headliners.
Oct 18, 2026 came in at a 8/10, the kind of day where Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry can eat two hours of your morning. Crowds bounced between a 1 and a 7, settling around a 8 for most of the day.

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 8 PM
The last 90 minutes is the only window
Headliners finally ease late. Skip dinner, stay late, eat after.
Every ride, by land.
