Pros

Reasons to visit in March

  • TRON Lightcycle / Run and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train both run in dependable spring conditions without hurricane-season storm cancellations.
  • Evening spectaculars like Happily Ever After and Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away look sharp against the mild March night air.
  • Fantasyland's indoor attractions, including it's a small world and Mickey's PhilharMagic, give you cool relief once the afternoon heat sets in.
  • Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade runs its full daytime route in comfortable temperatures rather than summer's midday scorch.
  • The Magic Carpets of Aladdin and other Adventureland attractions are still tolerable in March before summer humidity makes that land brutal.
Cons

Things to watch out for

  • Spring Break pushes this park to its highest crowd levels of the year, with Seven Dwarfs Mine Train and TRON Lightcycle / Run regularly topping 60 minutes by mid-morning.
  • Tomorrowland and Frontierland offer little shade, and afternoon sun makes queues for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Space Mountain feel much longer than posted.
  • Main Street USA gets so packed during parade and fireworks staging that simply walking from the hub to the park entrance can take longer than expected.
  • Fantasyland's meet and greet lines, including Princess Fairytale Hall, stretch far beyond their queue switchbacks on the busiest March days.
  • About seven rain days this month can still shut down Astro Orbiter and other outdoor rides mid-afternoon with no warning.
