Which Spring Break Week Will Be Bigger?

I am heading down to PCB either the week of March 7th-14th or March 14th-21st. So I was wondering which week will be bigger as far as crowd and entertainment? Any help would be appreciated.

7-14th is peak week this year so it'll be hella busy that time. But even after peek week, PCB will still be packed.

I dont know where everyone is getting that the 7-14th is peak week this year. It's never that week and according to tripsmarter its the 13th-20th like usual....1.7 mil to 2.1 mil....typically those are the two biggest weeks tho so you cant go wrong with either

Here's the deal...more schools are off March 13-20, but more of the schools that closer to PCB (Florida schools, Georgia, etc.) are off March 6-13, so I think they end up being pretty similar in terms of how crowded they get.

I've never been the March 6-13 week, but I've heard it's slightly more crowded (I'll let you know after this year whether that's true, I'll be there for both).

Either way, both are nuts, and you can probably barely notice the difference (if any).

The only difference I've heard about in past years is that there's generally better concerts the March 6-13 week than the March 13-20 week. Last year, the best MTV concerts were the first week, and that's when Luke Bryan and Kenny Chesney were there too

Was there both weeks -- both were packed, but you could definitely tell that March 13-20 was slightly more crowded.

It wasn't a huge difference, but it was noticeable. Both weeks were sick, though

Both weeks were busy but 13-20 was absolutely insane.
