California Adventure Crowd Calendar
Based on Predictive Modeling
California Adventure Crowd Calendar
Below is the 2025 predictive crowd calendar for California Adventure. The general idea is is that higher wait times equals a busier park. This calendar is a predictive model of future wait times developed based on past data collections and factors derived by the Thrill Data team. Use this information to help guide decisions on time periods when to visit the park. The number shown in each calendar day box is the predicted average wait time for that date. Click on any date to see the specific wait times for the most recent occurence of that date.
Keep in mind that lower wait times do not indicate an empty park. It means that wait times are lower than other points in the year, but they may still be significant.

The predicted wait times are expected to fall within +/- 3.7 minutes of the value shown on the calendar based on the model's training test data set. Larger differences can occur, particularly for dates farther in the future.
The current calendar error is +/- 6.2 minutes based on predictions compared to measured wait times.
The table below compares the predicted wait times with the actual measured wait times. It shows how accurate or not the model was each day.
