That's exactly what we did last Christmas. Hit Epcot in the morning then headed back to the resort for lunch and pool time. We cut the pool time short as it was just too cold at Storm along Bay. They say the water is heated. I say it's not heated enough lol. We are gong again on Thursday and staying till the 30th. Christmas day this trip will be a resort day. We don't mind the crowds and Epcot was crowded but very dooable last year. We just want to relax at least one day of our trip and Christmas day falls right in the middle. Yes it will be crowded but I think you will be fine.What do you think the crowd will be like on xmas day at Epcot ? My family wants to go in the morning have lunch there and then leave go back to our hotel swim. Then go back in the evening for dinner. What do you think ?
Definitely.Do you think we will be able to return in the late day for dinner reservation and not have a problem getting in ?
Epcot last reached stage 4 on December 31st, 1999We'll be in Epcot for Xmas day as well. Going in around 11a even - it doesn't normally close due to capacity. Plus, there are levels of it - if you have reservations, you can still get in unless it's at a lvl 4. Which I don't believe Epcot has ever been.
