Orlando, Florida Weather in November

Mild days, cooler evenings

November feels pleasantly warm in Orlando, without October's heavier rain or lingering heat. The average high is 25°C, and rain falls on fewer days than in October. You can spend comfortable hours at Universal Orlando, stroll around Lake Eola, or enjoy outdoor rides without the stickiest summer afternoons. Evenings cool down, so outdoor plans may feel different after sunset.

The shorter days mean less time for sightseeing outdoors, and showers can still interrupt a theme-park day. Keep indoor stops like the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in mind if rain rolls in.

Thanksgiving and holiday lights

The Epcot International Food & Wine Festival often continues into November, though its dates change each year. Later in the month, holiday events begin at Walt Disney World, including Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom. Thanksgiving brings a major travel rush, with busier parks and packed roads around the resort areas.

Families who enjoy festive park nights may love the early Christmas celebrations, but quieter visits are easier outside Thanksgiving week.

Crowds, costs and a local tip

Outside Thanksgiving, November is usually calmer and less costly than Orlando's summer peak. The holiday week is the exception: expect more visitors and higher hotel prices. December to March is also a popular time to visit, so November can be a useful shoulder-season choice if you avoid the holiday surge.

At Epcot, use the International Gateway entrance between the United Kingdom and France pavilions if you're staying near the Disney resort boats or Skyliner. It can save a long walk from the main entrance when you're heading to the World Showcase.
