Orlando Spring Break

By Teresa Plowright, About.com

Orlando for Spring Break:

Orlando is the most popular destination for families during Spring Break-- so it's fortunate indeed that dates for Spring Break vary in different parts of the US and Canada. Just imagine what line-ups would be like at Disney World, if every school, everywhere, closed its doors the same week!

Typically, Spring Break means ten days off school, in mid-March to mid-April.

Special in Orlando, for Spring Break:

In addition to all the usual fun:

  • sports fans can take in basketball, baseball, golf, ice-skating, or maybe the cycling Festival of Speed
  • The Epcot theme park at Disney World has its Annual International Flower & Garden Festival
  • Universal Studios has Mardi Gras Weekends with big parade on Saturday night
Orlando Spring Break family packages:
Check the Family Spring Break section at OrlandoInfo (the site of the Orlando Convention and Visitors' Bureau.) "Family Spring Break Packages" can be booked online. Or call 1-866-MYORLANDO (696-7526).
