FAQ
When is the best time to visit Hollywood Studios?
Look for the months and weeks with the lowest average crowd level above. Every Hollywood Studios day is scored 1–10 against Hollywood Studios’s own recorded history, so a low score means a light day for Hollywood Studios specifically — it is not comparable with another park’s score.
How are Hollywood Studios crowd levels measured?
We record the posted standby wait at every Hollywood Studios attraction every minute. Each day’s park-wide median wait is ranked against every Hollywood Studios day on record and mapped to a 1–10 decile. Future dates are projected from the same weekday at the same point in the season across prior years and are always labeled as projections.
Does a Hollywood Studios crowd level mean the same thing at other parks?
No. Each park is scored against its own history, so a 6 at Hollywood Studios and a 6 at another park describe different crowds. Use the scores to pick the lighter days within Hollywood Studios, and each park’s own calendar to compare its days.
