How September compares

4th of 12 overall in Orlando, 10th for weather, 1st for space, 1st for value. It is the emptiest month of the year; and it's also the best value.

Plan around

Summer thunderstorms: Afternoon thunderstorms are common. They are often brief but can affect outdoor plans and theme-park schedules.
Halloween: Theme parks run major Halloween programming, making the period attractive for fans but busier on event nights.

Not set on September?

Comfortable temperatures, lower humidity and generally good outdoor conditions.

Mild, relatively dry weather and a good reset after the holiday peak.
