Springtime is truly magical at Walt Disney World! As the days grow longer and flowers begin to bloom, there’s no better place to celebrate the season than at the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. From March 1 through July 5, EPCOT will transform into a colorful paradise filled with captivating topiaries, vibrant gardens, live entertainment, exclusive merchandise, and delicious cuisine.
This year’s festival brings an exciting new addition—topiaries from Disney’s Encanto- Mirabel, Antonio, Isabela, and Luisa! Located at EPCOT’s main entrance, these topiaries will surely be one of the festival’s most popular photo spots. Just remember: We don’t talk about Bruno!
And there’s more magic in store! A new Princess Tiana topiary will grace The American Adventure pavilion. Returning favorites like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Peter Pan and Tinker Bell, and Anna and Elsa will also make an appearance, alongside beloved characters like Figment and Captain Hook.
Garden Rocks Concert Series
Music lovers will be thrilled to know that the Garden Rocks Concert Series is back at the America Gardens Theatre. This fan-favorite concert series will feature live performances from popular bands spanning multiple genres. Keep an eye on the Disney Parks Blog for the full lineup announcement soon!
