Tokyo Disney crowds in August: the quieter days inside the summer break

August gets treated as one long peak. Counted level by level, the days split into a heavy group and a light one, and the middle stays thin. The order of the week does not look the way it does in the months either side.

August splits its days into a heavy group and a light one. The 62 days average Fairly easy, 1 levels off the year. Below the yearly average: 62 days, or 100%. Weekdays and weekend days come out on the same level.

The table lists all 31 August days still ahead, quietest first. The charts count all 62 days of the month. Each level is what our model puts on a date still to come, which is a different thing from how many people walked in.

"One long peak" misses 62 days

August runs 62 days. Below the yearly average: 62 of them, or 100%.

The month averages Fairly easy against Normal for the year — 1 level apart. "August is busy" is true of part of the month, not the month.

The lightest day of the week is Sunday?

By weekday, the lightest is Sunday at Easy and the heaviest Saturday at Fairly easy. The lightest day of the week falls on the weekend side.

All seven days split into only 2 level words. The 43 weekdays average Fairly easy and the 19 weekend days Fairly easy — the same word once you group them.

Lightest first: Sunday, Thursday, Friday. How far apart to hold weekdays and weekends is crowds by weekday's question.

Which level are the days piling into?

Counted by level, the largest group is Easy with 33 days (53%), and the heaviest level Normal takes 6. Only 3 levels appear at all.

The thinnest level in between is Fairly easy, with 23 days. The days pile onto the ends rather than the middle.

A limited set of dates inside the month builds the heavy end. That set on its own is the Obon week.
