March: Moderate crowds, warmer weather, and spring break events.
March is a popular time to visit Disney World due to spring break for many schools. This means that crowds can be moderate to high, especially during the latter half of the month. However, the weather is starting to warm up, making it a great time to enjoy the outdoor attractions and water parks. There are also special events for St. Patrick's Day and Easter, including parades and character meet and greets.
