AboutMaryJo Mellado Willey Expertise I live fairly close to the Disneyland Resort, and have an annual pass, so I visit the Disneyland Resort quite often.
Experience I have visited the Disneyland Resort several times each year for several years, and have stayed in each of the hotels. I have a pretty good understanding of the parks, hotels, and Downtown Disney.
Question QUESTION: Hi. We are going to Vegas for a wedding in November and want to take our girls to Disneyland. My question - Do you think the crowds will be big/long lines on Veterans Day being it is on a Wednesday this year? Thanks so much for your time.

ANSWER: Hi Patricia,
I think Wednesday will be fine. Most schools will observe Veteran's Day on Monday, and will actually be in school on the day itself.
If you get a chance, go to the flag retreat ceremony at around 4:30 or so. It will be on your park schedule. It should be special that day.
Have a great time.

QUESTION: Thanks so much for your info and time. I thought most of the local schools were off on Wednesday, is this not correct?
Patricia
Answer Hi Patricia,
Unfortunately, I do not know the answer to that. I do not have children who go to public schools. However, I looked up LA public school holidays on Google, and it does look like they get Wednesday off, and not Monday/Tuesday.
So, in reading that, I would expect lighter crowds on Monday and Tuesday, with Tuesday afternoon MAYBE getting a little bit more of a crowd, and Wednesday having a bigger crowd. I don't know if many businesses get that day off, so Wednesday might not be too crowded.
