Methodology
- Prices. RopeDrop checks Disney's Lightning Lane purchase flow every day. For each park and date we keep the latest Multi Pass price we saw (172 priced dates, April 11, 2026 to October 29, 2026). Prices are visible about 13 days ahead and rarely change once posted.
- Crowd level. The 1–10 scale from our crowd calendar: past days are measured average posted waits relative to that park's normal; future days are the calendar's forecast. The correlation uses past days only.
- Events. Party and after-hours nights and Extended Evening Hours come from Disney's published park-hours calendar. On party nights the park closes early to day guests. Only Magic Kingdom's August–October and November–December ticketed nights are named; other ticketed nights are shown as "after-hours ticketed event".
- Concerts. EPCOT's Eat to the Beat nights (purple triangles, and a purple strip across the series) come from Disney's published lineup; see the full lineup with crowd levels. They are not counted as party nights.
- Seasons. The shaded windows are the holiday and school-break periods our crowd forecast uses.
- Sell-outs. A marker means Multi Pass stopped being offered for that date at a same-day check and didn't return. Late-afternoon stops can be Disney ending same-day sales ahead of park close rather than demand; our checks don't say which.
