I don't know about you, but I have always LOVED Disney in the Fall. Here are five things that make going to Disney in the Fall the BEST!
1. WEATHER
Weather in the Fall in Central Florida is a bit unpredictable, with hurricanes and tropical storms and all, but a good 75% of the time the weather is beautiful. Mostly warm, sunny days, followed by comfortable, breezy nights. Warm enough to swim, but cool enough to not feel like your face is melting.

2. CROWDS
This one mostly applies to early to mid September when the kiddos heading back to school which causes a massive drop in park attendance. If you are kid-free, or take the kids out of school, you'll have lower crowds. Wait times for rides and attractions are at their one of their lowest of the year (January has weeks that are lower), and pool and water park crowds are drastically reduced. It's a totally different experience from Summer, Christmas Vacation, or Spring trips.
November lands mostly in the realm of very smaller crowds, with the exception of Thanksgiving week and Veteran's Day weekend. October isn't exactly the same situation, since October has events like Food and Wine Festival and Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party drawing in larger crowds mostly on Fridays and Saturdays. Early October is a good choice.
3. MONEY SAVING OFFERS
There is typically a discount in the fall! At Kingdom Konsultant Travel, we can tell you what the best one is for you. Even after you book, new discounts can be applied if your trip qualifies.
Currently- there's a FREE DINING promotion for Disney Visa Cardmembers for June 29 to September 30, October 20 to November 1, and December 6 to December 22, 2025 with a 4 night stay and 4 day park hopper tickets! Ask us for more details!
4. HALLOWEEN
Halloween festivities are everywhere in the Central Florida area in the Fall. On Disney property, you can't miss Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, a special hard ticketed event at Magic Kingdom. The party thrills and delights kids of all ages, special character meet and greets, dance parties, trick-or-treating in the park, and a spectacular Boo To You Halloween Parade and fireworks.
Tip: MNSSHP Too tame for your taste? Head on over to Universal's Halloween Horror Nights, where even the bravest of souls will have the pixie dust scared right out of them. If you like the idea of being trapped in a horror movie, this is the event for you. 👻 (Not so much for me.)
You can even find Halloween festivities at nearby Sea World's Spooktacular Event or LEGOLand's Brick-Or-Treat. Disney Cruise Line also has Halloween on the High Seas! Lots of fun stuff in Fall in Florida!
5. FOOD
From August-November, a festival of epic proportions arrives at Epcot. That's right, I'm talking about the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival! Guests travel from all over the globe to experience this incredible, edible event, where Disney chefs show off their best work, and dazzle taste buds everywhere. Most Festival features are included with Epcot admission. Special dining events are offered for additional pricing, and tons of food booths surrounding World Showcase Lagoon, allow you to purchase sample size offerings of food and drink from all around the globe. There are also free concerts called Eat to the Beat by well-known artists.
