04 · The parks

What each one is.

Epcot

EPCOT sits at the centre of Walt Disney World, split between Future World (with Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Test Track, Spaceship Earth, Soarin', and Frozen Ever After) and the World Showcase - eleven pavilions themed around countries including Japan, Germany, France, and the UK. Flower & Garden, Food & Wine and Festival of the Holidays events run through much of the year.

EPCOT's biggest crowd drivers are its festivals rather than just ride popularity. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind consistently posts the longest wait times in the park. Check live queue times on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a lower-crowd date outside the peak festival weekends - the World Showcase pavilions can take a full afternoon to properly explore.

Worlds Of Fun

Worlds of Fun is a theme park in Kansas City, Missouri, opened in 1973 and now run under the Six Flags banner. The park covers 235 acres with themed areas based on continents and a varied coaster line-up: Mamba (a 205-foot Morgan hyper coaster), Prowler (a GCI wooden coaster), Patriot (an inverted coaster), and Timber Wolf. An Oceans of Fun water park operates on the same site in summer.

Kansas City school holidays and the Halloween Haunt drive Worlds of Fun's peak crowds, particularly weekend days in July, August and October. Weekdays in May, September and early October are much quieter. Check live queue times for Mamba and Prowler before committing, and use our crowd calendar to pick a lower-crowd midweek date for shorter waits.
