Plan a day at Animal Kingdom
Tuesday, December 22, 2026
- Open 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM
- Early entry for hotel guests
BusyBusy. Based on 11 years of crowd records for this time of year.
What drives it: Christmas and New Year break. Ticketed event in the evening, so day crowds thin out.
Same weekday last year, Tuesday, December 23: crowd level 8.
There isn’t enough history for Animal Kingdom yet. Forecasts start after about a week of recorded waits and get sharper every week after.
