July 2025 is a enormous month at Walt Disney World. It’s the largest of the 12 months for closings & openings, modifications, occasions and extra. This covers every part taking place subsequent month, and the way it will or will NOT impression wait instances, crowds & congestion in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom.
When you’ve already booked a visit to Walt Disney World in July 2025 and are regretting that selection on the premise of the phrases “massive” and “crowds” within the title, don’t fear. Whereas a number of issues on this record completely will impression crowd ranges and wait instances, most usually are not across-the-board will increase, as we clarify.
Furthermore, we wish to begin by underscoring the fact that July has not been a busy month for the previous few years. That is one thing we’ve lined in a number of posts, together with the function: Summer season Is NOT Peak Season at Walt Disney World Anymore. Opposite to the traditional knowledge that Memorial Day via Labor Day is the busiest stretch of the 12 months in Florida, summer season crowds haven’t been as dangerous as previously. That publish provides a number of potential theories explaining the why of this. The underside line is that we don’t count on July 2025 to be the month that lastly bucks that several-years-running pattern of decrease summer season crowds, even when there are some remoted exceptions, as mentioned beneath…
Independence Day
This ‘opposite to traditional knowledge’ bit about decrease summer season crowds applies to Independence Day on the very begin of July 2025. That lengthy weekend used to have 10/10 crowds and be among the many busiest holidays of the 12 months. It has change into below-average.
Independence Day 2023 was downright useless at Walt Disney World. It was such a scorching subject that it drew an evidence from CEO Bob Iger, who attributed the slowness to an exhaustion of pent-up demand in Florida as an entire and unseasonably dangerous climate. He wasn’t unsuitable…however he additionally wasn’t utterly appropriate. Pricing and aggressive ticket blockouts had been the larger offender.
Independence Day 2024 crowds had been once more unexpectedly low, even minus blockouts. Walt Disney World as an entire had a median wait time of 26 minutes on July 4, 2024. That was down as in comparison with the final two weeks of June, which had common wait instances of 35 minutes (second to final week) and 31 minutes (final week).
It’s a near-certainty that July 4-6, 2025 received’t be as dangerous as many previous years. It merely is not going to evaluate to 2019 or earlier, again when the parks had been really busy. We’d however count on greater crowd ranges than the final two years, by advantage of the vacation falling on a Friday and Walt Disney World providing engaging reductions versus blockouts. However the vacation weekend not being really busy shouldn’t catch anybody (who has been paying consideration) unexpectedly. The decrease crowd ranges must be very a lot anticipated by this level.
However, there will probably be Independence Day leisure and fireworks, like at all times. Full particulars have but to be introduced, however we’ll cowl them in our Fourth of July 2025 Survival Information. What we all know proper now could be that Magic Kingdom will shut at 11 pm on each nights, however no different parks will see extensions to their hours. (Unsurprising given the dearth of crowds the previous few years.)
“Disney’s Rejoice America! A Fourth of July Live performance within the Sky” will probably be carried out on July 3-4 at Magic Kingdom, changing Fortunately Ever After. A simultaneous fireworks show over close by Seven Seas Lagoon creates an unforgettable expertise for friends within the park and close by Magic Kingdom Resort Space lodges. This particular fireworks present will happen July 3 and July 4 at 9:20 p.m.
Rivers of America Closes
The Rivers of America, Tom Sawyer Island, and Liberty Sq. Riverboat will all shut on July 7, 2025. The final day to expertise any of those sights and places at Magic Kingdom will probably be July 6, 2025. As soon as the rivers cease flowing and are stuffed in, they’ll type the inspiration of the Automobiles land (now generally known as Piston Peak Nationwide Park) in Frontierland and a portion of Villains Land.
Together with that, “shuttle mode” operations of the Walt Disney World Railroad will start on July 7, 2025. That’s additionally when the Frontierland Station will shut on a short lived foundation for Automobiles and Villains Land building. Because of this the final date to expertise the Grand Circle Tour of the WDW Railroad (or cease at Frontierland Station) is July 6, 2025.
Each time something at Walt Disney World closes, followers end up in full power for the ultimate day. That was true of Sew’s Nice Escape, so it’ll definitely be true of one thing individuals really love. Due to this, we at all times hear from readers who’re apprehensive wait instances will skyrocket on that day. And they’ll! For the Liberty Sq. Riverboat and rafts to Tom Sawyer Island, and solely these two sights.
Nothing else will probably be impacted. We noticed this most lately with the ultimate day of MuppetVision 3D. The road for later showings of that stretched all the way in which again into Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. There have been stories that Cell Order for PizzeRizzo was successfully “damaged” and friends had been ready 2 hours for his or her meals. (I’m undecided whether or not slow-aging underneath the warmth lamp would make PizzeRizzo higher or worse.)
And but, wait instances for every part else had been nearly precisely in step with the times earlier than and after. When hardcore followers end up for these ultimate days, they’re largely locals and so they’re principally there for the factor itself and the camaraderie round closing. By and enormous, these followers usually are not going to be doing fast stops at Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Sq. Riverboat as a part of an aggressive itinerary that additionally contains Tiana’s Bayou Journey, Nation Bear Musical Jamboree, and the Magic Carpets of Aladdin.
As an alternative, it’ll be localized congestion all through the day in Frontierland and Liberty Sq. with zero impression on wait instances in the remainder of the park. Anticipate to see greater utilization of the “secret” seating space at Columbia Harbour Home, however that’s actually about it. This would possibly’ve been a distinct state of affairs if the closing was introduced additional prematurely or occurred after Starlight–or coincided with anything permitting extra vacationers to plan farewell journeys, however that’s not the case. Total crowd degree impression will probably be negligible.
V.I.Passholder Summer season Days
V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer season Days (or VIP Passholder Summer season Days, if you wish to sound it out and take away the yelling) is a limited-time providing only for Annual Passholders at Walt Disney World Resort. It’s the corporate’s method of claiming ‘thanks’ for being a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder!
V.I.Passholder Days will happen now via July 31, 2025. The in-park focus of the ‘occasion’ is EPCOT, owing to there being no summer season competition as soon as once more. APs will be capable of reap the benefits of unique perks and reductions all through the parks and resorts throughout the month-long appreciation occasion, with one spotlight being a particular character meet & greet (NOT Duffy), free magnet, and restaurant reductions.
By the point July rolls round, VIP Passholder Summer season Days may have been occurring for over a month. The preliminary rush will probably be over, and Annual Passholders will largely have misplaced curiosity. Final 12 months, July was the second-slowest month after August at EPCOT, and there’s no cause to count on something completely different of July 2025. Eating regimen EPCOT dooms the park from a crowds perspective. With one massive exception (mentioned beneath), the park will probably be useless throughout July 2025.
Fireworks Time Modifications
From now via July 5, the showtime of Fortunately Ever After at Magic Kingdom is 9:20 pm. That is the conventional summer season fireworks time, which shifts progressively later within the spring attributable to later sundown instances. Usually, 9:20 pm is as late because the fireworks get. Nothing to see right here.
This 12 months, the showtime of Fortunately Ever After strikes to 10 pm beginning on July 6, 2025. This transfer was made in anticipation of Disney Starlight Night time Parade, which missed its opening goal of that date. However as a result of Starlight missed that date, park hours weren’t prolonged for many of July, which means that Magic Kingdom closes at 10 pm.
Personally, I choose earlier showtimes for Fortunately Ever After. Like clockwork, wait instances drop for different sights as friends seize dinner after which stake out spots for Fortunately Ever After. Then there’s the park-exodus as a excessive proportion of friends depart following the fireworks. The sooner all of this occurs, the higher–it means there’s extra time that rides have shorter strains. This can be a little bit of a double-edged sword, as earlier showtimes additionally imply extra crowded viewing areas for Fortunately Ever After.
The massive draw back to fireworks at park closing is that the Magic Kingdom post-fireworks park exodus will happen unexpectedly. This could result in chaos and crowds exiting the park, and lengthy strains for buses. You actually wish to both beat this rush or wait it out. Actually, I’m slightly shocked Walt Disney World didn’t transfer Fortunately Ever After again to 9:20 pm as soon as it grew to become clear that Starlight was delayed till late July.
Flavors of Florida Kicks Off
If there’s a taste that comes from Florida—peppers, citrus fruit, cheeses, seafood, and extra—you’ll discover it at Flavors of Florida. The Sunshine State’s culinary occasion returns to Disney Springs from June 27 to August 10, 2025. With over 45 taking part places and 90+ distinctive menu gadgets, Flavors of Florida is stuffed with locally-grown elements and recent flavors that can depart you saying yum and wow each 5 seconds.
Flavors of Florida additionally provides a weekly culinary sequence the place you’ll be capable of see cooks from Disney Springs eating places as they display learn how to make a few of their dishes from the occasion. These complimentary cooking demos are held on choose Fridays. Additionally returning for 2025 are meals & beverage pairing occasions, providing all kinds of courses with one thing for everybody–from the Paella-making class at Jaleo to the cocktail-making class at The Edison.
Actually, we haven’t spent a ton of time at Disney Springs within the final two years. We spent a ton of time right here as locals, visiting a number of instances per week, to now going months with out visiting. So I can’t converse with full present authority, however our previous expertise was that summer season is the slowest time of 12 months at Disney Springs. There’s not sufficient shade and locals largely keep away from it, particularly throughout the daytime hours.
That’s exactly why Flavors of Florida was launched within the first place. If the occasion does enhance crowds this 12 months, and it’ll in all probability enhance them a bit, it’s localized to Disney Springs and sure nonetheless effectively beneath the baseline for different instances of 12 months. There’s no impression on the remainder of Walt Disney World. (On a facet be aware, every part I’ve seen for Flavors of Florida seems promising! I’d really make an effort to cowl it this 12 months.)
Starlight Night time Parade Debuts
Disney Starlight: Dream the Night time Away is the brand new nighttime parade coming to Walt Disney World this summer season. Floats are delivered to life via the ability of the Blue Fairy’s magic, you’ll watch favourite basic and modern characters from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney Pixar movies, some for the very first time in a Disney nighttime parade.
Starlight is the continuation of Walt Disney World’s legacy of nighttime parades, with bits of nostalgia for Principal Road Electrical Parade and SpectroMagic sprinkled all through a blinding procession that raises the bar for the long run. Disney Starlight: Dream the Night time Away debuts on July 20, 2025.
Out of every part on this record, the brand new evening parade may have the largest impression on crowds. Walt Disney World has already launched a coverage to limit Annual Passholders, and so they’ve blocked out Forged Members on each single evening Starlight will probably be carried out via (at the very least) the top of August 2025. All of those are unprecedented measures attributable to “anticipated excessive demand” in line with Walt Disney World.
Whereas demand for Starlight completely will probably be excessive, the parade is not going to have an instantaneous, throughout the board impression. One factor that we’ve noticed with MNSSHP and MVMCP is that leisure choices can create remoted congestion on Principal Road and alongside the parade route, whereas hollowing out different areas of Magic Kingdom. Which means {that a} state of affairs with greater attendance however decrease wait instances for rides at evening in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20 is totally attainable.
There’s additionally the query of how Starlight will impression ahead bookings and occupancy. The debut date was introduced lower than 2 months prematurely, and that’s inadequate lead time for many friends planning summer season holidays. Nevertheless, the identical is just not true for vacationers taking Christmas-time holidays–which means the largest impression amongst non-locals would possibly really happen from November 2025 via March 2026.
The underside line is that you may count on chaos and crowds alongside the parade route in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20, 2025. Nevertheless it’ll possible be remoted to that space of that one park, and won’t adversely impression wait instances anyplace at Walt Disney World. The true enhance to total crowd ranges will happen later, as Starlight is considered one of a pair issues that might drive bookings for the house stretch of the 12 months.
Reimagined Check Monitor Reopens
Check Monitor 3.0 will function six distinct reveals, and inside every room have fun the autos that push the envelope and assist get individuals to our subsequent chapter in our movement journey. New present scenes will probably be added showcasing technological advances and the way existence and relationships to mobility join everybody.
On the reimagined Check Monitor, friends will take pleasure in a pleasure trip via scenes specializing in onboard expertise, customization and personalization. Adopted by a visit via a scenic out of doors route reminding us the entire joys of driving, taking on the earth round us and spending high quality time with family and friends. This attraction replace will debut an all-new musical rating, in addition to new scenes that spotlight expertise making automobiles smarter and life extra enjoyable.
Followers received’t have to attend an excessive amount of longer, as the development partitions have already come down and Check Monitor is testing! Walt Disney World introduced that Check Monitor will formally open on July 22, 2025.
As with Starlight, the reopening of the reimagined Check Monitor may have a localized impression on crowds. It’s too late for many vacationers and out-of-state followers to plan journeys for its reopening, however locals will present up in full power. Check Monitor hitting a 240-minute wait time on July 22 wouldn’t shock us within the least, however that peak must be short-lived.
Since July 22 is Eating regimen EPCOT, we might not count on Floridians to stay round for lengthy as soon as they’ve skilled Check Monitor. Some will do full days, however the capability added by Check Monitor ought to greater than offset that. Consequently, we don’t count on elevated wait instances at different sights. Bel0w-average waits for every part besides perhaps Cosmic Rewind is extra possible.
It’s uncommon for a gap/reopening day to adversely impression wait instances of different sights. Check Monitor will see elevated recognition all through the rest of July, and we’d count on it to see a spike in recognition lasting all through the rest of 2025. However we’re speaking a ten% to twenty% enhance, not something large. And together with Starlight, it might additionally assist drive bookings for late 2025.
Bourbon Steak Opening
The subsequent new restaurant coming to Walt Disney World is Bourbon Steak Orlando by Michael Mina, which opens in July 2025 and is situated within the WDW Swan & Dolphin Resorts. Advance Eating Reservations at the moment are accessible on OpenTable.
The primary date friends could make reservations for the signature steakhouse by award-winning chef and restaurateur Michael Mina is Saturday, July 26, 2025. Observe that the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resorts haven’t but introduced an official opening date for Bourbon Steak, so it’s attainable the restaurant smooth opens previous to then.
It’s going to be a race in opposition to the clock to transform this area into Bourbon Steak Orlando. The brand new restaurant is changing Shula’s Steakhouse within the Walt Disney World Dolphin, which simply served its final friends on June 14, 2025. Scrims went up instantly across the venue after closing, and work might want to occur quick with rather less than 6 weeks of turnaround time. Nonetheless, Swan & Dolphin work quick, so smooth openings are attainable!
On the danger of stating the apparent, Bourbon Steak Orlando may have zero impression by any means on crowds at Walt Disney World. It would possibly make the already dire parking state of affairs on the Swan & Dolphin even worse, however that’s about it.
Prolonged Night Hours Returns to Animal Kingdom
Prolonged Night Hours will transfer from Magic Kingdom to Animal Kingdom on Wednesdays, beginning with July 2, 2025. The rationale for this is identical because the Fortunately Ever After transfer–laying the groundwork for Starlight, which was then delayed. In any case, listed below are the July dates when Animal Kingdom will host Prolonged Night Hours:
- Wednesday, July 2, 2025
- Wednesday, July 9, 2025
- Wednesday, July 16, 2025
- Wednesday, July 23, 2025
- Wednesday, July 30, 2025
Prolonged Night Hours are usually a lot extra widespread throughout the summer season months, no matter decrease crowds, attributable to greater temperatures. Nevertheless, that’s additionally when friends get an additional two hours of late nights in Magic Kingdom or EPCOT. Animal Kingdom is presently scheduled to shut at 6 pm all through the summer season, and there’s no cause to consider park hours will probably be prolonged. Which means that these ‘further hours’ will finish earlier than sundown. Zero impression on crowds.
Cool Child Summer season Continues
“Cool Child Summer season” is the brand new summer season occasion at Walt Disney World aimed toward households with youngsters, which runs from now via September 1, 2025. “Cool Child Summer season” options DJ-fueled dance events, shock character appearances, hands-on actions and nonstop summer season vibes.
To make a go to to Walt Disney World throughout “Cool Child Summer season” even simpler, there are a number of particular provides aimed toward younger households:
- 50% Off on Children Tickets: You should purchase a 3-day or longer children (ages 3-9) customary ticket for 50% off. This deal is accessible for visits now via September 20, 2025.

This ticket is for admission to EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom (one theme park per day, not legitimate for admission to Magic Kingdom).
- Disney Resort Room Offers: Save as much as 30% on choose Disney Resort lodge rooms if you keep longer for visits starting August 1 via October 11, 2025. Particular offers on rooms are additionally accessible for Florida Residents and Annual Passholders.
- Big Streaming Particular Provide: Disney+ subscribers can save on rooms at choose Disney Resort lodges – ranging from $99 per evening at Disney’s All-Star Sports activities Resort – when staying two nights or longer most nights from June 29 to July 31, 2025.
Mainly, “Cool Child Summer season” is the advertising and marketing bundle to tie these reductions into one thing greater image that additionally matches with the brand new stage exhibits at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (which additionally haven’t impacted total crowd ranges) and Starlight evening parade at Magic Kingdom.
When it comes to the group impression, there hasn’t been one thus removed from “Cool Child Summer season” and we wouldn’t count on that to vary in July. The character experiences, dance events, and numerous actions are good plussings or value-adds–however nobody is dashing to e-book a visit for any of this. If something, the extra aggressive reductions within the month of July would possibly transfer the needle a bit on occupancy, however that’s unlikely to translate to crowds.

Floats are delivered to life via the ability of the Blue Fairy’s magic, you’ll watch favourite basic and modern characters from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney Pixar movies, some for the very first time in a Disney nighttime parade.

Which means {that a} state of affairs with greater attendance however decrease wait instances for rides at evening in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20 is totally attainable.
There’s additionally the query of how Starlight will impression ahead bookings and occupancy. The debut date was introduced lower than 2 months prematurely, and that’s inadequate lead time for many friends planning summer season holidays. Nevertheless, the identical is just not true for vacationers taking Christmas-time holidays–which means the largest impression amongst non-locals would possibly really happen from November 2025 via March 2026.
The underside line is that you may count on chaos and crowds alongside the parade route in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20, 2025. Nevertheless it’ll possible be remoted to that space of that one park, and won’t adversely impression wait instances anyplace at Walt Disney World. The true enhance to total crowd ranges will happen later, as Starlight is considered one of a pair issues that might drive bookings for the house stretch of the 12 months.
Reimagined Check Monitor Reopens
Check Monitor 3.0 will function six distinct reveals, and inside every room have fun the autos that push the envelope and assist get individuals to our subsequent chapter in our movement journey. New present scenes will probably be added showcasing technological advances and the way existence and relationships to mobility join everybody.
On the reimagined Check Monitor, friends will take pleasure in a pleasure trip via scenes specializing in onboard expertise, customization and personalization. Adopted by a visit via a scenic out of doors route reminding us the entire joys of driving, taking on the earth round us and spending high quality time with family and friends.

Followers received’t have to attend an excessive amount of longer, as the development partitions have already come down and Check Monitor is testing! Walt Disney World introduced that Check Monitor will formally open on July 22, 2025.
As with Starlight, the reopening of the reimagined Check Monitor may have a localized impression on crowds. It’s too late for many vacationers and out-of-state followers to plan journeys for its reopening, however locals will present up in full power. Check Monitor hitting a 240-minute wait time on July 22 wouldn’t shock us within the least, however that peak must be short-lived.
Since July 22 is Eating regimen EPCOT, we might not count on Floridians to stay round for lengthy as soon as they’ve skilled Check Monitor. Some will do full days, however the capability added by Check Monitor ought to greater than offset that. Consequently, we don’t count on elevated wait instances at different sights. Bel0w-average waits for every part besides perhaps Cosmic Rewind is extra possible.
It’s uncommon for a gap/reopening day to adversely impression wait instances of different sights. Check Monitor will see elevated recognition all through the rest of July, and we’d count on it to see a spike in recognition lasting all through the rest of 2025. However we’re speaking a ten% to twenty% enhance, not something large. And together with Starlight, it might additionally assist drive bookings for late 2025.
Bourbon Steak Opening
The subsequent new restaurant coming to Walt Disney World is Bourbon Steak Orlando by Michael Mina, which opens in July 2025 and is situated within the WDW Swan & Dolphin Resorts. Advance Eating Reservations at the moment are accessible on OpenTable.
The primary date friends could make reservations for the signature steakhouse by award-winning chef and restaurateur Michael Mina is Saturday, July 26, 2025. Observe that the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resorts haven’t but introduced an official opening date for Bourbon Steak, so it’s attainable the restaurant smooth opens previous to then.
It’s going to be a race in opposition to the clock to transform this area into Bourbon Steak Orlando. The brand new restaurant is changing Shula’s Steakhouse within the Walt Disney World Dolphin, which simply served its final friends on June 14, 2025. Scrims went up instantly across the venue after closing, and work might want to occur quick with rather less than 6 weeks of turnaround time. Nonetheless, Swan & Dolphin work quick, so smooth openings are attainable!
On the danger of stating the apparent, Bourbon Steak Orlando may have zero impression by any means on crowds at Walt Disney World. It would possibly make the already dire parking state of affairs on the Swan & Dolphin even worse, however that’s about it.
Prolonged Night Hours Returns to Animal Kingdom
Prolonged Night Hours will transfer from Magic Kingdom to Animal Kingdom on Wednesdays, beginning with July 2, 2025. The rationale for this is identical because the Fortunately Ever After transfer–laying the groundwork for Starlight, which was then delayed. In any case, listed below are the July dates when Animal Kingdom will host Prolonged Night Hours:
- Wednesday, July 2, 2025
- Wednesday, July 9, 2025

Nevertheless, that’s additionally when friends get an additional two hours of late nights in Magic Kingdom or EPCOT. Animal Kingdom is presently scheduled to shut at 6 pm all through the summer season, and there’s no cause to consider park hours will probably be prolonged. Which means that these ‘further hours’ will finish earlier than sundown. Zero impression on crowds.

If something, the extra aggressive reductions within the month of July would possibly transfer the needle a bit on occupancy, however that’s unlikely to translate to crowds.

YOUR THOUGHTS
Wanting ahead to July 2025 at Walt Disney World? Excited for what’s opening, altering or coming to Walt Disney World within the month of July? Disenchanted in what’s closing, or excited for the long run? Agree or disagree with our assessments? Any questions we may also help you reply?

July 2025 is a enormous month at Walt Disney World. It’s the largest of the 12 months for closings & openings, modifications, occasions and extra. This covers every part taking place subsequent month, and the way it will or will NOT impression wait instances, crowds & congestion in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom.
When you’ve already booked a visit to Walt Disney World in July 2025 and are regretting that selection on the premise of the phrases “massive” and “crowds” within the title, don’t fear. Whereas a number of issues on this record completely will impression crowd ranges and wait instances, most usually are not across-the-board will increase, as we clarify.
Furthermore, we wish to begin by underscoring the fact that July has not been a busy month for the previous few years. That is one thing we’ve lined in a number of posts, together with the function: Summer season Is NOT Peak Season at Walt Disney World Anymore. Opposite to the traditional knowledge that Memorial Day via Labor Day is the busiest stretch of the 12 months in Florida, summer season crowds haven’t been as dangerous as previously. That publish provides a number of potential theories explaining the why of this. The underside line is that we don’t count on July 2025 to be the month that lastly bucks that several-years-running pattern of decrease summer season crowds, even when there are some remoted exceptions, as mentioned beneath…
Independence Day
This ‘opposite to traditional knowledge’ bit about decrease summer season crowds applies to Independence Day on the very begin of July 2025. That lengthy weekend used to have 10/10 crowds and be among the many busiest holidays of the 12 months. It has change into below-average.
Independence Day 2023 was downright useless at Walt Disney World. It was such a scorching subject that it drew an evidence from CEO Bob Iger, who attributed the slowness to an exhaustion of pent-up demand in Florida as an entire and unseasonably dangerous climate. He wasn’t unsuitable…however he additionally wasn’t utterly appropriate. Pricing and aggressive ticket blockouts had been the larger offender.
Independence Day 2024 crowds had been once more unexpectedly low, even minus blockouts. Walt Disney World as an entire had a median wait time of 26 minutes on July 4, 2024. That was down as in comparison with the final two weeks of June, which had common wait instances of 35 minutes (second to final week) and 31 minutes (final week).
It’s a near-certainty that July 4-6, 2025 received’t be as dangerous as many previous years. It merely is not going to evaluate to 2019 or earlier, again when the parks had been really busy. We’d however count on greater crowd ranges than the final two years, by advantage of the vacation falling on a Friday and Walt Disney World providing engaging reductions versus blockouts. However the vacation weekend not being really busy shouldn’t catch anybody (who has been paying consideration) unexpectedly. The decrease crowd ranges must be very a lot anticipated by this level.
However, there will probably be Independence Day leisure and fireworks, like at all times. Full particulars have but to be introduced, however we’ll cowl them in our Fourth of July 2025 Survival Information. What we all know proper now could be that Magic Kingdom will shut at 11 pm on each nights, however no different parks will see extensions to their hours. (Unsurprising given the dearth of crowds the previous few years.)
“Disney’s Rejoice America! A Fourth of July Live performance within the Sky” will probably be carried out on July 3-4 at Magic Kingdom, changing Fortunately Ever After. A simultaneous fireworks show over close by Seven Seas Lagoon creates an unforgettable expertise for friends within the park and close by Magic Kingdom Resort Space lodges. This particular fireworks present will happen July 3 and July 4 at 9:20 p.m.
Rivers of America Closes
The Rivers of America, Tom Sawyer Island, and Liberty Sq. Riverboat will all shut on July 7, 2025. The final day to expertise any of those sights and places at Magic Kingdom will probably be July 6, 2025. As soon as the rivers cease flowing and are stuffed in, they’ll type the inspiration of the Automobiles land (now generally known as Piston Peak Nationwide Park) in Frontierland and a portion of Villains Land.
Together with that, “shuttle mode” operations of the Walt Disney World Railroad will start on July 7, 2025. That’s additionally when the Frontierland Station will shut on a short lived foundation for Automobiles and Villains Land building. Because of this the final date to expertise the Grand Circle Tour of the WDW Railroad (or cease at Frontierland Station) is July 6, 2025.
Each time something at Walt Disney World closes, followers end up in full power for the ultimate day. That was true of Sew’s Nice Escape, so it’ll definitely be true of one thing individuals really love. Due to this, we at all times hear from readers who’re apprehensive wait instances will skyrocket on that day. And they’ll! For the Liberty Sq. Riverboat and rafts to Tom Sawyer Island, and solely these two sights.
Nothing else will probably be impacted. We noticed this most lately with the ultimate day of MuppetVision 3D. The road for later showings of that stretched all the way in which again into Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. There have been stories that Cell Order for PizzeRizzo was successfully “damaged” and friends had been ready 2 hours for his or her meals. (I’m undecided whether or not slow-aging underneath the warmth lamp would make PizzeRizzo higher or worse.)
And but, wait instances for every part else had been nearly precisely in step with the times earlier than and after. When hardcore followers end up for these ultimate days, they’re largely locals and so they’re principally there for the factor itself and the camaraderie round closing. By and enormous, these followers usually are not going to be doing fast stops at Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Sq. Riverboat as a part of an aggressive itinerary that additionally contains Tiana’s Bayou Journey, Nation Bear Musical Jamboree, and the Magic Carpets of Aladdin.
As an alternative, it’ll be localized congestion all through the day in Frontierland and Liberty Sq. with zero impression on wait instances in the remainder of the park. Anticipate to see greater utilization of the “secret” seating space at Columbia Harbour Home, however that’s actually about it. This would possibly’ve been a distinct state of affairs if the closing was introduced additional prematurely or occurred after Starlight–or coincided with anything permitting extra vacationers to plan farewell journeys, however that’s not the case. Total crowd degree impression will probably be negligible.
V.I.Passholder Summer season Days
V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer season Days (or VIP Passholder Summer season Days, if you wish to sound it out and take away the yelling) is a limited-time providing only for Annual Passholders at Walt Disney World Resort. It’s the corporate’s method of claiming ‘thanks’ for being a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder!
V.I.Passholder Days will happen now via July 31, 2025. The in-park focus of the ‘occasion’ is EPCOT, owing to there being no summer season competition as soon as once more. APs will be capable of reap the benefits of unique perks and reductions all through the parks and resorts throughout the month-long appreciation occasion, with one spotlight being a particular character meet & greet (NOT Duffy), free magnet, and restaurant reductions.
By the point July rolls round, VIP Passholder Summer season Days may have been occurring for over a month. The preliminary rush will probably be over, and Annual Passholders will largely have misplaced curiosity. Final 12 months, July was the second-slowest month after August at EPCOT, and there’s no cause to count on something completely different of July 2025. Eating regimen EPCOT dooms the park from a crowds perspective. With one massive exception (mentioned beneath), the park will probably be useless throughout July 2025.
Fireworks Time Modifications
From now via July 5, the showtime of Fortunately Ever After at Magic Kingdom is 9:20 pm. That is the conventional summer season fireworks time, which shifts progressively later within the spring attributable to later sundown instances. Usually, 9:20 pm is as late because the fireworks get. Nothing to see right here.
This 12 months, the showtime of Fortunately Ever After strikes to 10 pm beginning on July 6, 2025. This transfer was made in anticipation of Disney Starlight Night time Parade, which missed its opening goal of that date. However as a result of Starlight missed that date, park hours weren’t prolonged for many of July, which means that Magic Kingdom closes at 10 pm.
Personally, I choose earlier showtimes for Fortunately Ever After. Like clockwork, wait instances drop for different sights as friends seize dinner after which stake out spots for Fortunately Ever After. Then there’s the park-exodus as a excessive proportion of friends depart following the fireworks. The sooner all of this occurs, the higher–it means there’s extra time that rides have shorter strains. This can be a little bit of a double-edged sword, as earlier showtimes additionally imply extra crowded viewing areas for Fortunately Ever After.
The massive draw back to fireworks at park closing is that the Magic Kingdom post-fireworks park exodus will happen unexpectedly. This could result in chaos and crowds exiting the park, and lengthy strains for buses. You actually wish to both beat this rush or wait it out. Actually, I’m slightly shocked Walt Disney World didn’t transfer Fortunately Ever After again to 9:20 pm as soon as it grew to become clear that Starlight was delayed till late July.
Flavors of Florida Kicks Off
If there’s a taste that comes from Florida—peppers, citrus fruit, cheeses, seafood, and extra—you’ll discover it at Flavors of Florida. The Sunshine State’s culinary occasion returns to Disney Springs from June 27 to August 10, 2025. With over 45 taking part places and 90+ distinctive menu gadgets, Flavors of Florida is stuffed with locally-grown elements and recent flavors that can depart you saying yum and wow each 5 seconds.
Flavors of Florida additionally provides a weekly culinary sequence the place you’ll be capable of see cooks from Disney Springs eating places as they display learn how to make a few of their dishes from the occasion. These complimentary cooking demos are held on choose Fridays. Additionally returning for 2025 are meals & beverage pairing occasions, providing all kinds of courses with one thing for everybody–from the Paella-making class at Jaleo to the cocktail-making class at The Edison.
Actually, we haven’t spent a ton of time at Disney Springs within the final two years. We spent a ton of time right here as locals, visiting a number of instances per week, to now going months with out visiting. So I can’t converse with full present authority, however our previous expertise was that summer season is the slowest time of 12 months at Disney Springs. There’s not sufficient shade and locals largely keep away from it, particularly throughout the daytime hours.
That’s exactly why Flavors of Florida was launched within the first place. If the occasion does enhance crowds this 12 months, and it’ll in all probability enhance them a bit, it’s localized to Disney Springs and sure nonetheless effectively beneath the baseline for different instances of 12 months. There’s no impression on the remainder of Walt Disney World. (On a facet be aware, every part I’ve seen for Flavors of Florida seems promising! I’d really make an effort to cowl it this 12 months.)
Starlight Night time Parade Debuts
Disney Starlight: Dream the Night time Away is the brand new nighttime parade coming to Walt Disney World this summer season. Floats are delivered to life via the ability of the Blue Fairy’s magic, you’ll watch favourite basic and modern characters from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney Pixar movies, some for the very first time in a Disney nighttime parade.
Starlight is the continuation of Walt Disney World’s legacy of nighttime parades, with bits of nostalgia for Principal Road Electrical Parade and SpectroMagic sprinkled all through a blinding procession that raises the bar for the long run. Disney Starlight: Dream the Night time Away debuts on July 20, 2025.
Out of every part on this record, the brand new evening parade may have the largest impression on crowds. Walt Disney World has already launched a coverage to limit Annual Passholders, and so they’ve blocked out Forged Members on each single evening Starlight will probably be carried out via (at the very least) the top of August 2025. All of those are unprecedented measures attributable to “anticipated excessive demand” in line with Walt Disney World.
Whereas demand for Starlight completely will probably be excessive, the parade is not going to have an instantaneous, throughout the board impression. One factor that we’ve noticed with MNSSHP and MVMCP is that leisure choices can create remoted congestion on Principal Road and alongside the parade route, whereas hollowing out different areas of Magic Kingdom. Which means {that a} state of affairs with greater attendance however decrease wait instances for rides at evening in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20 is totally attainable.
There’s additionally the query of how Starlight will impression ahead bookings and occupancy. The debut date was introduced lower than 2 months prematurely, and that’s inadequate lead time for many friends planning summer season holidays. Nevertheless, the identical is just not true for vacationers taking Christmas-time holidays–which means the largest impression amongst non-locals would possibly really happen from November 2025 via March 2026.
The underside line is that you may count on chaos and crowds alongside the parade route in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20, 2025. Nevertheless it’ll possible be remoted to that space of that one park, and won’t adversely impression wait instances anyplace at Walt Disney World. The true enhance to total crowd ranges will happen later, as Starlight is considered one of a pair issues that might drive bookings for the house stretch of the 12 months.
Reimagined Check Monitor Reopens
Check Monitor 3.0 will function six distinct reveals, and inside every room have fun the autos that push the envelope and assist get individuals to our subsequent chapter in our movement journey. New present scenes will probably be added showcasing technological advances and the way existence and relationships to mobility join everybody.

As with Starlight, the reopening of the reimagined Check Monitor may have a localized impression on crowds. It’s too late for many vacationers and out-of-state followers to plan journeys for its reopening, however locals will present up in full power. Check Monitor hitting a 240-minute wait time on July 22 wouldn’t shock us within the least, however that peak must be short-lived.
Since July 22 is Eating regimen EPCOT, we might not count on Floridians to stay round for lengthy as soon as they’ve skilled Check Monitor. Some will do full days, however the capability added by Check Monitor ought to greater than offset that. Consequently, we don’t count on elevated wait instances at different sights.

Check Monitor will see elevated recognition all through the rest of July, and we’d count on it to see a spike in recognition lasting all through the rest of 2025.

This particular fireworks present will happen July 3 and July 4 at 9:20 p.m.
Rivers of America Closes
The Rivers of America, Tom Sawyer Island, and Liberty Sq. Riverboat will all shut on July 7, 2025. The final day to expertise any of those sights and places at Magic Kingdom will probably be July 6, 2025. As soon as the rivers cease flowing and are stuffed in, they’ll type the inspiration of the Automobiles land (now generally known as Piston Peak Nationwide Park) in Frontierland and a portion of Villains Land.
Together with that, “shuttle mode” operations of the Walt Disney World Railroad will start on July 7, 2025. That’s additionally when the Frontierland Station will shut on a short lived foundation for Automobiles and Villains Land building. Because of this the final date to expertise the Grand Circle Tour of the WDW Railroad (or cease at Frontierland Station) is July 6, 2025.
Each time something at Walt Disney World closes, followers end up in full power for the ultimate day. That was true of Sew’s Nice Escape, so it’ll definitely be true of one thing individuals really love. Due to this, we at all times hear from readers who’re apprehensive wait instances will skyrocket on that day. And they’ll! For the Liberty Sq. Riverboat and rafts to Tom Sawyer Island, and solely these two sights.
Nothing else will probably be impacted. We noticed this most lately with the ultimate day of MuppetVision 3D. The road for later showings of that stretched all the way in which again into Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. There have been stories that Cell Order for PizzeRizzo was successfully “damaged” and friends had been ready 2 hours for his or her meals. (I’m undecided whether or not slow-aging underneath the warmth lamp would make PizzeRizzo higher or worse.)
And but, wait instances for every part else had been nearly precisely in step with the times earlier than and after. When hardcore followers end up for these ultimate days, they’re largely locals and so they’re principally there for the factor itself and the camaraderie round closing. By and enormous, these followers usually are not going to be doing fast stops at Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Sq. Riverboat as a part of an aggressive itinerary that additionally contains Tiana’s Bayou Journey, Nation Bear Musical Jamboree, and the Magic Carpets of Aladdin.
As an alternative, it’ll be localized congestion all through the day in Frontierland and Liberty Sq. with zero impression on wait instances in the remainder of the park. Anticipate to see greater utilization of the “secret” seating space at Columbia Harbour Home, however that’s actually about it. This would possibly’ve been a distinct state of affairs if the closing was introduced additional prematurely or occurred after Starlight–or coincided with anything permitting extra vacationers to plan farewell journeys, however that’s not the case. Total crowd degree impression will probably be negligible.
V.I.Passholder Summer season Days
V.I.PASSHOLDER Summer season Days (or VIP Passholder Summer season Days, if you wish to sound it out and take away the yelling) is a limited-time providing only for Annual Passholders at Walt Disney World Resort. It’s the corporate’s method of claiming ‘thanks’ for being a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder!
V.I.Passholder Days will happen now via July 31, 2025. The in-park focus of the ‘occasion’ is EPCOT, owing to there being no summer season competition as soon as once more. APs will be capable of reap the benefits of unique perks and reductions all through the parks and resorts throughout the month-long appreciation occasion, with one spotlight being a particular character meet & greet (NOT Duffy), free magnet, and restaurant reductions.
By the point July rolls round, VIP Passholder Summer season Days may have been occurring for over a month. The preliminary rush will probably be over, and Annual Passholders will largely have misplaced curiosity. Final 12 months, July was the second-slowest month after August at EPCOT, and there’s no cause to count on something completely different of July 2025. Eating regimen EPCOT dooms the park from a crowds perspective. With one massive exception (mentioned beneath), the park will probably be useless throughout July 2025.
Fireworks Time Modifications
From now via July 5, the showtime of Fortunately Ever After at Magic Kingdom is 9:20 pm. That is the conventional summer season fireworks time, which shifts progressively later within the spring attributable to later sundown instances. Usually, 9:20 pm is as late because the fireworks get. Nothing to see right here.
This 12 months, the showtime of Fortunately Ever After strikes to 10 pm beginning on July 6, 2025. This transfer was made in anticipation of Disney Starlight Night time Parade, which missed its opening goal of that date. However as a result of Starlight missed that date, park hours weren’t prolonged for many of July, which means that Magic Kingdom closes at 10 pm.
Personally, I choose earlier showtimes for Fortunately Ever After. Like clockwork, wait instances drop for different sights as friends seize dinner after which stake out spots for Fortunately Ever After. Then there’s the park-exodus as a excessive proportion of friends depart following the fireworks. The sooner all of this occurs, the higher–it means there’s extra time that rides have shorter strains. This can be a little bit of a double-edged sword, as earlier showtimes additionally imply extra crowded viewing areas for Fortunately Ever After.
The massive draw back to fireworks at park closing is that the Magic Kingdom post-fireworks park exodus will happen unexpectedly. This could result in chaos and crowds exiting the park, and lengthy strains for buses. You actually wish to both beat this rush or wait it out. Actually, I’m slightly shocked Walt Disney World didn’t transfer Fortunately Ever After again to 9:20 pm as soon as it grew to become clear that Starlight was delayed till late July.
Flavors of Florida Kicks Off
If there’s a taste that comes from Florida—peppers, citrus fruit, cheeses, seafood, and extra—you’ll discover it at Flavors of Florida. The Sunshine State’s culinary occasion returns to Disney Springs from June 27 to August 10, 2025. With over 45 taking part places and 90+ distinctive menu gadgets, Flavors of Florida is stuffed with locally-grown elements and recent flavors that can depart you saying yum and wow each 5 seconds.
Flavors of Florida additionally provides a weekly culinary sequence the place you’ll be capable of see cooks from Disney Springs eating places as they display learn how to make a few of their dishes from the occasion. These complimentary cooking demos are held on choose Fridays. Additionally returning for 2025 are meals & beverage pairing occasions, providing all kinds of courses with one thing for everybody–from the Paella-making class at Jaleo to the cocktail-making class at The Edison.
Actually, we haven’t spent a ton of time at Disney Springs within the final two years. We spent a ton of time right here as locals, visiting a number of instances per week, to now going months with out visiting. So I can’t converse with full present authority, however our previous expertise was that summer season is the slowest time of 12 months at Disney Springs. There’s not sufficient shade and locals largely keep away from it, particularly throughout the daytime hours.
That’s exactly why Flavors of Florida was launched within the first place. If the occasion does enhance crowds this 12 months, and it’ll in all probability enhance them a bit, it’s localized to Disney Springs and sure nonetheless effectively beneath the baseline for different instances of 12 months. There’s no impression on the remainder of Walt Disney World. (On a facet be aware, every part I’ve seen for Flavors of Florida seems promising! I’d really make an effort to cowl it this 12 months.)
Starlight Night time Parade Debuts
Disney Starlight: Dream the Night time Away is the brand new nighttime parade coming to Walt Disney World this summer season. Floats are delivered to life via the ability of the Blue Fairy’s magic, you’ll watch favourite basic and modern characters from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney Pixar movies, some for the very first time in a Disney nighttime parade.
Starlight is the continuation of Walt Disney World’s legacy of nighttime parades, with bits of nostalgia for Principal Road Electrical Parade and SpectroMagic sprinkled all through a blinding procession that raises the bar for the long run. Disney Starlight: Dream the Night time Away debuts on July 20, 2025.
Out of every part on this record, the brand new evening parade may have the largest impression on crowds. Walt Disney World has already launched a coverage to limit Annual Passholders, and so they’ve blocked out Forged Members on each single evening Starlight will probably be carried out via (at the very least) the top of August 2025. All of those are unprecedented measures attributable to “anticipated excessive demand” in line with Walt Disney World.
Whereas demand for Starlight completely will probably be excessive, the parade is not going to have an instantaneous, throughout the board impression. One factor that we’ve noticed with MNSSHP and MVMCP is that leisure choices can create remoted congestion on Principal Road and alongside the parade route, whereas hollowing out different areas of Magic Kingdom. Which means {that a} state of affairs with greater attendance however decrease wait instances for rides at evening in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20 is totally attainable.
There’s additionally the query of how Starlight will impression ahead bookings and occupancy. The debut date was introduced lower than 2 months prematurely, and that’s inadequate lead time for many friends planning summer season holidays. Nevertheless, the identical is just not true for vacationers taking Christmas-time holidays–which means the largest impression amongst non-locals would possibly really happen from November 2025 via March 2026.
The underside line is that you may count on chaos and crowds alongside the parade route in Magic Kingdom beginning July 20, 2025. Nevertheless it’ll possible be remoted to that space of that one park, and won’t adversely impression wait instances anyplace at Walt Disney World. The true enhance to total crowd ranges will happen later, as Starlight is considered one of a pair issues that might drive bookings for the house stretch of the 12 months.
Reimagined Check Monitor Reopens
Check Monitor 3.0 will function six distinct reveals, and inside every room have fun the autos that push the envelope and assist get individuals to our subsequent chapter in our movement journey. New present scenes will probably be added showcasing technological advances and the way existence and relationships to mobility join everybody.
On the reimagined Check Monitor, friends will take pleasure in a pleasure trip via scenes specializing in onboard expertise, customization and personalization. Adopted by a visit via a scenic out of doors route reminding us the entire joys of driving, taking on the earth round us and spending high quality time with family and friends. This attraction replace will debut an all-new musical rating, in addition to new scenes that spotlight expertise making automobiles smarter and life extra enjoyable.
Followers received’t have to attend an excessive amount of longer, as the development partitions have already come down and Check Monitor is testing! Walt Disney World introduced that Check Monitor will formally open on July 22, 2025.
As with Starlight, the reopening of the reimagined Check Monitor may have a localized impression on crowds. It’s too late for many vacationers and out-of-state followers to plan journeys for its reopening, however locals will present up in full power. Check Monitor hitting a 240-minute wait time on July 22 wouldn’t shock us within the least, however that peak must be short-lived.
Since July 22 is Eating regimen EPCOT, we might not count on Floridians to stay round for lengthy as soon as they’ve skilled Check Monitor. Some will do full days, however the capability added by Check Monitor ought to greater than offset that. Consequently, we don’t count on elevated wait instances at different sights. Bel0w-average waits for every part besides perhaps Cosmic Rewind is extra possible.
It’s uncommon for a gap/reopening day to adversely impression wait instances of different sights. Check Monitor will see elevated recognition all through the rest of July, and we’d count on it to see a spike in recognition lasting all through the rest of 2025. However we’re speaking a ten% to twenty% enhance, not something large. And together with Starlight, it might additionally assist drive bookings for late 2025.
Bourbon Steak Opening
The subsequent new restaurant coming to Walt Disney World is Bourbon Steak Orlando by Michael Mina, which opens in July 2025 and is situated within the WDW Swan & Dolphin Resorts. Advance Eating Reservations at the moment are accessible on OpenTable.
The primary date friends could make reservations for the signature steakhouse by award-winning chef and restaurateur Michael Mina is Saturday, July 26, 2025. Observe that the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resorts haven’t but introduced an official opening date for Bourbon Steak, so it’s attainable the restaurant smooth opens previous to then.
It’s going to be a race in opposition to the clock to transform this area into Bourbon Steak Orlando. The brand new restaurant is changing Shula’s Steakhouse within the Walt Disney World Dolphin, which simply served its final friends on June 14, 2025. Scrims went up instantly across the venue after closing, and work might want to occur quick with rather less than 6 weeks of turnaround time. Nonetheless, Swan & Dolphin work quick, so smooth openings are attainable!
On the danger of stating the apparent, Bourbon Steak Orlando may have zero impression by any means on crowds at Walt Disney World. It would possibly make the already dire parking state of affairs on the Swan & Dolphin even worse, however that’s about it.
Prolonged Night Hours Returns to Animal Kingdom
Prolonged Night Hours will transfer from Magic Kingdom to Animal Kingdom on Wednesdays, beginning with July 2, 2025. The rationale for this is identical because the Fortunately Ever After transfer–laying the groundwork for Starlight, which was then delayed. In any case, listed below are the July dates when Animal Kingdom will host Prolonged Night Hours:
- Wednesday, July 2, 2025
- Wednesday, July 9, 2025
- Wednesday, July 16, 2025
- Wednesday, July 23, 2025
- Wednesday, July 30, 2025
Prolonged Night Hours are usually a lot extra widespread throughout the summer season months, no matter decrease crowds, attributable to greater temperatures. Nevertheless, that’s additionally when friends get an additional two hours of late nights in Magic Kingdom or EPCOT. Animal Kingdom is presently scheduled to shut at 6 pm all through the summer season, and there’s no cause to consider park hours will probably be prolonged. Which means that these ‘further hours’ will finish earlier than sundown. Zero impression on crowds.
Cool Child Summer season Continues
“Cool Child Summer season” is the brand new summer season occasion at Walt Disney World aimed toward households with youngsters, which runs from now via September 1, 2025. “Cool Child Summer season” options DJ-fueled dance events, shock character appearances, hands-on actions and nonstop summer season vibes.
To make a go to to Walt Disney World throughout “Cool Child Summer season” even simpler, there are a number of particular provides aimed toward younger households:
- 50% Off on Children Tickets: You should purchase a 3-day or longer children (ages 3-9) customary ticket for 50% off. This deal is accessible for visits now via September 20, 2025.

- Disney Resort Room Offers: Save as much as 30% on choose Disney Resort lodge rooms if you keep longer for visits starting August 1 via October 11, 2025. Particular offers on rooms are additionally accessible for Florida Residents and Annual Passholders.
- Big Streaming Particular Provide: Disney+ subscribers can save on rooms at choose Disney Resort lodges – ranging from $99 per evening at Disney’s All-Star Sports activities Resort – when staying two nights or longer most nights from June 29 to July 31, 2025.
Mainly, “Cool Child Summer season” is the advertising and marketing bundle to tie these reductions into one thing greater image that additionally matches with the brand new stage exhibits at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (which additionally haven’t impacted total crowd ranges) and Starlight evening parade at Magic Kingdom.
When it comes to the group impression, there hasn’t been one thus removed from “Cool Child Summer season” and we wouldn’t count on that to vary in July. The character experiences, dance events, and numerous actions are good plussings or value-adds–however nobody is dashing to e-book a visit for any of this. If something, the extra aggressive reductions within the month of July would possibly transfer the needle a bit on occupancy, however that’s unlikely to translate to crowds.
