Q: When is the best time to visit to avoid crowds?

Posted by Mom411 in Questions

Q: Maxine asks, "Are there any days when the crowds seem to be better at the different parks?  How do you start planning a week's stay?  We all have season passes to all the parks." 

A: I would recommend trying to visit sometime during the week instead of on the weekends to avoid crowds.  Attendance is typically higher at all of the parks from Friday-Sunday.  Celebration City is the best laid out for dealing with crowds, so if you have to visit one of the parks on a Saturday it would be the best.  Also, think about coming early in the day to any of the parks (CC opens at 3PM) for lighter crowds. 

Also, consider making a trip during the spring or fall instead of the summer months.  The busiest time of year to visit is during July.  A visit during the spring or fall will give you a chance to see some of the unique festivals at Silver Dollar City like Bluegrass & BBQ, Southern Gospel Picnic or the National Harvest Festival.  And while the other parks are open on a more limited schedule, there tend to be fewer people than during peak season
