Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival

This year, the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival runs from February 28 to May 27, 2024. During this festival, Epcot is filled with flowers and fun topiaries, as well as delicious outdoor kitchens, unique souvenirs and different bands featured through the Garden Rocks Concert series. It is such a fun way to kick off Spring!

This year, there are more than 70 topiaries…I personally can’t wait to see the new Groot topiary and the Coco topiaries!

Wind down your evening with a Garden Rocks concert. This year, there are so many great bands performing, it’s hard to decide which one to see! If you want to guarantee a seat during a concert, you can reserve one of the Garden Rocks dining packages. The restaurants participating this year are:

Akershus Royal Banquet Hall

Another fun thing to do as you are making your way around Epcot is participating in the festival scavenger hunt. You can look for Spike the Bee in the different gardens while doing the Spike’s Pollination Exploration around Epcot. Pick up your scavenger hunt map in select locations and don’t forget to pick up your prize once you are done with the scavenger hunt. You can redeem your map for your prize at Disney Trader’s, Creations Shop or World Traveler at the International Gateway. Prizes are available through May 27 2024 or while supplies last.
