HELP! I am so conflicted. Due to the fact that my sister has a steady teaching job our family can't go to DL in May like always. The only reasonable time is Mid/late August. I know it's summer and bound to be busy but are some schools back in session by then? Do we have any chance of low crowds? :) Either way I rather go than not :)
I've been in August and sometimes it's not bad! I'd say go for it! - MissMolly

I'd go as late in August as possible...lots of schools start then - MissMolly 697.6 #141 11:29PM
Late August will probably be less crowded than mid August as many kids will be going back to school around then. - aidensmama

Some schools do go back mid to late August but there will still be crowds. - LilSterner

It's less crowed weekdays. LA schools go back Aug 15 - Fantasmic! fan1

It might be busy, but on the bright side, it's not as busy as Christmas. Also... You will be at Disneyland! Any time at Disneyland is a great time!!! That is a pretty picture! - Boundin

I went several times this past August and it was not bad at all. Obviously if you can go during the week it will be even better! - ShariRenee

It starts slowing down the later into August you go. Avoid Labor Day weekend (first weekend in September) as that's the DL half-marathon and one last hurrah for a lot of families. - IDVandalSkipperCM

Glad your sis has a good job! You'll have fun no matter what, but later in August would be better, unless you can take a long weekend in September. - Spoonful_O_Sugar

However, keep in mind in September there are Halloween parties and hours may vary. It is a fun time to visit though because it's all decorated for Halloween and fall! - IDVandalSkipperCM 1297.4 #63 10:38AM
