          Not this year Malcon10, I heard July 4th was fairly light.

          Christmas Holidays are always the busiest.

            Yeah, I was looking for that as well. I don't go then but have heard horror stories from friends.
            Went on Veteran's day last year and it rivaled the worst of crowds.

              Out of the holidays I've been to the park(Easter, Veterans Day, 4th of July, Labor Day and Christmas)I would say Christmas. DL was at capacity each of our days there

                    Single Day counts...

                    New Years Eve (Resort wide the best in attendance)

                    July 4th (Disneyland, due to the extend fireworks)

                    Then selected days between Christmas and New Years Eve

                    These are the days that the park plans to reach capacity, and usually does (unless there is bad weather).

                      I was there on the 4th this year. It was not quite as busy as NYE. But it was far from light.

                      We are there every year from the 23rd of Dec to Jan 2 or 3rd. New Years Eve is definately the busiest. Last year was light due to the rain. So, if I had to choose between NYE 2005 and the 4th this year, having been there on each, I would say the 4th was heavier. Christmas day wasn't bad last year, neither was Christmas eve.

                          Haha thanks! I really want to go on New Years this year. I have never gone b4 and I think it would be A LOT of fun. I dont care about any rides (because that would be impossible on New Years Eve). Who has gone in previous years?

                            We've been doing NYE there since 1998 (except in 2004.) Its great, as long as you are mentally prepared for the crowds. Personally, its my favorite time.

                              From personal experience - 4th of July weekend is probably the busiest day. Other days are the day after Thanksgiving, the day after Christmas (actually that whole week), New Year's Eve and from what I saw over the weekend Gay Days! lol

                                I know it is not a holiday for most people (excluding men) but I have been to DLR on Super Bowl Sunday...... and it was PACKED!!! Packed like the middle of Summer on a weekend packed! Worse than New Year's Eve or Day even. I was shocked! But it was great fun.
                                WooHoo!:yea:

                                  Went on Veteran's day last year and it rivaled the worst of crowds.

                                  Veteran's Day, last year, did set a record attendance last year,
                                  for some odd reason. And the gates were even closed for a
                                  short period of time in the afternoon.

                                  BUT, consistantly, the most crowded, most unbearable crowds
                                  are in DL on New Year's Eve. IF it is not rainy on Dec 31, crowds
                                  can form rather quickly. The past several New Year's Eves, the
                                  weather has always cleared up for the midnight hour, and the
                                  crowds COME!

                                      New Year's is always a chaotic time in the park.

                                      Traditionally the 4th is too, but this year it was actually manageable.

                                        The worst was probably 2001. Betwween the 26 and 31st, they closed the gates by 11 each day, and didn;t reopen til after 4. On the 31st, I had to call the hotel we were at and have someone go kick my son out of the room so he would be in the park before it closed up. But of that week, NYE is always the worst. And what I find interesting is Thanksgiving and teh day after are not as crowded (but close) but there is something about it that makes that timeframe a little more unbearable.
