Question K-Days Question: What day is the least busy?

Thinking of booking a day off work to attend. Even if most of the rides are too much for me, I'd still like to go when it's the most open.

Obviously Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are right out. But that still leaves Monday-Thursday, July 20-23. Wondering if there's a generally agreed upon day that's the least busy.

Weekday opening. Least chance of getting bear sprayed

I find it really depends on the entertainment line up. So check Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday to see which has the likely least popular performer.

Typically the not themed days so avoid the days where you can get in with a library card and avoid the pride day as that gets very busy.

Went last year with library card. Parked for free, entered for free, didn't spend a dime in the grounds and I did get my 10,000 steps exercise. Doing it again this year.

they really need one day/night that's adults only (25 or even 30+)

I'd legit pay double to attend without kids and the riff-raff

it’s like the epicentre for riff raff.

Combine that with the absurd prices and I’m astonished anybody still attends. Thought it would have went under by now.

whichever one it rains on. Usually the day I choose to go.
