The EMPTIEST Disney World Has Been.. But Why?

Happy 4th of July everyone! Epcot is so empty it’s nuts

It's a combination of factors, but Disney greed is definitely at the top of the list. Sky-high prices (tickets, food, merch), Genie plus lightning lane schemes, sub-par new attractions like the Moanna walk-through, cheap re-themes of existing attractions, shoddy maintenance, etc. Essentially, pay more for less and Disney is no longer the must-go premier magical destination. Combine that with the ease of virtually experiencing the park and attractions via YouTube (thanks to you and many others.) Sure, it's not the same as going but what are you really missing if the magic isn't very magical. The enormous amount of money saved can be used for many other recreational activities that are far cheaper.

2024 F&G Festival was NOT CANCELLED. The Festival was Ended Early / Cut Short by Disney (for whatever reason).

My wife and I stopped going when they started up charging you to go on attractions in the parks. You pay to get in the park then to ride the top attractions you have to pay again? Sorry that’s awful.

It's the cost. It's not rocket science. Cost is why crowds are down.

people are broke, Disney has priced out the middle-class

This is the first year in almost 30 years we aren’t going. We dropped our annual passes last September. Disney just lost the magic for us. There are still parts we love, but the whole park experience is more stressful and complicated, and Disney does nothing to make us feel appreciated.

I can go overseas for a fraction of the cost of Disney. I can go to UO at a fraction of the cost of Disney. Why wouldn't I expand my horizons? Disney has my heart, but not at these prices.

"It's the economy stupid!" Mic Drop

Maybe people aren't coming because they flat out can't afford it. Disney is pricing out middle America. Happy 4th🇺🇸

I think the reason nobody is at Disney is because of the price. It is way too expensive for people to afford now.

Kyle we love your videos. Been watching at least 3-4 years. Can’t thank you enough

Disney vaporized the magic they once had.

If this was filmed on July 3rd, then it would make sense that there weren't that many people. Most people travel on the 3rd so they are at their destination on the 4th.

its empty because you need to sell your soul to get in

Disney is widely known as the greediest place on earth and as Disney continues to raise prices and gouge customers you can expect it to become more and more empty. The average Disney park goer is no longer willing to submit to their outrageous prices for mediocre food and spend half of their day standing in lines for attractions that may break down or be evacuated at any moment. Disney has deservedly earned the reputation of being a ripoff destination.

Go to Disney springs on a Friday night and check out the restaurant crowds, not people walking through but people actually sitting down and eating, not many and most places are near empty which is crazy….inflation!

Seriously you don't know why Disney isn't as crowded? Everyone was at Sea World and Universal Studios. Sea World was at capacity and had to turn people away and Universal was insanely busy. Guess Why? Disney has turned away from family values, had only 1/4 of their usual July 4th decor up. People are getting sick of it. Their firework show on the 4th was only 7 minutes long, where Sea Worlds was 26 mins long, celebrating our nation. Its all over tic toc and IG where everyone was.

I just don’t understand virtual queues. I mean, they’re probably helpful for the first few months that a ride is open for crowd control purposes, but there’s absolutely no need for them 6+ months after the ride’s opening.

Disney literally has the worst food in their parks. And you will pay over $100 for 3 people to eat non nutritious garbage.
