How are the Crowds at Disneyland in November?

The answer to that question is that it depends when you go. Crowds at the beginning of the month pretty light, but are drastically different the week of Thanksgiving.

As long as you go in early November and avoid the weekends, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day and the week of Thanksgiving, you may experience some of the lightest crowds of the year and avoid long lines!

Don’t let heavy crowds scare you away though. Crowds are almost always part of the Disneyland experience, but as long as you are prepared, you will still have a great time!

Crowd at Disneyland

My advice to beat the crowds if you do go during a busy time in November is to arrive early, have a plan of what are your must-do attractions, don’t plan on seeing everything and purchase Genie+!

If you’re wondering about crowd levels at Disneyland during other months of the year, check out my tips for Disneyland in January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October and December. You can find a guide for each month of the year here.

Special Events in November at Disneyland

There are a few official and unofficial special events that happen at Disneyland in November which makes it a great time to go! Here is what will be happening this year.

Dapper Day

Dapper Day is an unofficial semi-annual event that takes place in November and brings all the dappers out! Many people attend Dapper Day events to dress up to show off their fashion skills with a twist on classic outfits.

Saturday of "Dapper Weekend" usually includes events at the Disneyland Hotel and Sunday is the actual day in the parks. This experience is scheduled for November 6th. Book your hotel and park tickets now!

Holidays at the Disneyland Resort

The holidays are truly a magical time of year to visit Disneyland and begins November 10, 2023 through January 7, 2024. ! I love that Disney starts celebrating the Christmas season in November. That gives guest more time to experience the magic and holiday decorations! Read all about Christmas at Disneyland here!

It's also nice that you can visit early in November when the crowds are lower.

You can expect to see the return of "World of Color-Season of Light," which is a holiday-themed version of the amazing nighttime show and visit Santa Claus at the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail! Enjoy live entertainment at Disney Festival of Holidays at California Adventure Park.

Also, the holidays will be spreading to Cars Land where two rides will transform to celebrate. You'll be able to enjoy Luigi’s Joy to the Whirl and Mater’s Jingle Jamboree.

Over at Disneyland Park, the Haunted Mansion is still Haunted Mansion Holiday with Jack Skellington and you will be able to witness the “Believe … in Holiday Magic” fireworks spectacular and the Christmas Fantasy Parade!

Also make sure to visit the Disneyland Resort Hotels for some amazing Christmas decorations.

How is the Weather at Disneyland in November

The average high temperatures at Disneyland in November are pleasantly warm and the lows range between a comfortable mid 50s to low 60s.

The forecast for this time of year is mainly sunny or partly cloudy, with maybe just one day of rain per month, but you can never be too safe when it comes to weather so make sure before heading out that you've checked current conditions.

What to Pack for November Disneyland Vacations

When it comes to packing for a Disneyland vacation, you want to be make sure you have everything you need and not end up being unprepared because you forgot essential items.

Below I'll show you some items you'll want to make sure are packed in your suitcase so you can have the ultimate adventure in California! Get my full Disneyland packing list here.

Minnie Mouse Backpack at Disneyland

Check out my post on things you can order from Amazon for your Disneyland vacation, what you should pack in your park backpack, and how you can use grocery delivery to order anything you may have forgotten when you arrive!

Pirates of the Caribbean

Pack Rain Ponchos

Although there are only a few days that have rain in the forecast for November, it is smart to be prepared with a few disposable ponchos.

Disneyland Grizzly River Run

My kids are not big fans of getting wet on rides, so I like to make sure we have a poncho with us when riding Splash Mountain.

It is more convenient than having to pack extra clothes for my little ones and it also allows them to stay dry while everyone else around them laughs their heads off!

Pack Sun Protection

The sun and UV rays are still an issue you need to think about in California, even in November. Make sure that you are ready by packing some sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses. 

Make sure to re-apply sunscreen to yourself and children often throughout the day. Nothing slams the brakes on fun like a sunburn at Disneyland!

Pack Comfortable Shoes

You will be doing A LOT of walking when you go to Disneyland, especially if you get a park hopper ticket.

I recommend bringing a couple of pairs comfortable shoes. It's a good idea to bring shoes that are already broken in because achy feet can really be a problem on your vacation. I really these Skechers to wear at the parks.

What to Wear at Disneyland in November

It can get pretty cool in the early mornings and late evenings at Disneyland this time of year.

In November, I usually wear jeans or a soft pair of leggings with pockets and a cute Disney t-shirt. But, I always bring a lightweight jacket or sweatshirt.

Make sure that it is light enough that you can keep it in a backpack or tied around your waist when it is warm outside during the day.

Where to Get Affordable Disney-Themed Shirts

I have a habit of buying new Disney shirts for my family every time we go to Disneyland. That can get pretty expensive. Here are a few places I like to pick up discount Disney-themed apparel.

Jane.com

I have found so many cute t-shirts, accessories, and other Disney-themed apparel for a great price on Jane.com.

Shirts I found on Jane.com

To find Disney-themed items, head to Jane.com and type "character" or "vacation" into the search bar.

The deals on Jane.com change daily, so if you see something you like, make sure to grab it while you can!

Daily Boutique Deals

shopDisney

You can also find a lot of good deals at shopDisney.com, especially if they have a free shipping deal or a sale going on.

To stay up to date on Disney Store sales, I would sign up for their emails. I get emails monthly with codes for free shipping.

Ride Closures in November at Disneyland

One of my favorite things about Disney is that they take pride in their parks and attractions.

Because of this, there are usually a few rides at both parks that are closed for refurbishment at different times throughout the year.

You can stay up to date with ride closures by checking Disneyland.com.

I've noticed that Disneyland will update expected ride closures about one or two months ahead of time, so check back for November closures in September or October.
