AnaheimCrowds2026 Strategy Guide

March Strategy

March marks the end of the "off-season." Once the first Spring Break districts release, the park baseline shifts to high demand.

March Demand Drivers

  • Staggered Breaks

    Not all schools break at once. March is a "rolling surge" month as different states cycle through their holidays.

  • Food & Wine Spike

    DCA’s Food & Wine Festival pulls in massive local crowds on Fridays and weekends.

When to go

The First Tuesday of March

Often the last "quiet" weekday before the mid-month Spring Break chaos officially takes hold.

Where the Day Gets Away From You

Spring Break Peak

If you visit during the last week of March, Genie+ is non-negotiable for "E-Ticket" attractions.
