Exploring the Enchanting 2024 Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival
Springtime at Epcot is a spectacle like no other, where the magic of Disney meets the beauty of nature in the vibrant tapestry of the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival. As the 2024 edition blossoms into full swing, visitors are treated to an immersive experience that celebrates the wonders of horticulture, culinary delights, and family-friendly entertainment.
Running through May 27, 2024, the festival transforms Epcot into a floral wonderland, with meticulously crafted gardens, topiaries, and floral displays adorning every corner of the park. From classic Disney characters brought to life in botanical form to intricate floral arrangements inspired by cultures around the world, there’s something to enchant visitors of all ages.
One of the highlights of the festival is the stunning array of topiaries that dot the landscape. These living sculptures, meticulously shaped and maintained by skilled horticulturists, capture the essence of beloved Disney characters in breathtaking detail. From Snow White and the Lady and the Tramp to the Lion King and Moana, guests can stroll through the park and marvel at these whimsical creations that seem to come to life amidst the blooms.
In addition to the visual feast of flowers and foliage, the festival also offers a culinary adventure for foodies and garden enthusiasts alike. Outdoor kitchens scattered throughout the park serve up a delectable array of dishes inspired by seasonal ingredients and garden-fresh flavors. From farm-to-table delights to refreshing botanical beverages, there’s no shortage of tantalizing treats to tempt the taste buds. You can also take part in the Garden Graze. Use your Festival Passport as your guide on this fun food stroll featuring several tasty dishes. Once you’ve tried at least 5 Garden Graze items—and collected a stamp for each—you can bring your Festival Passport to Pineapple Promenade, where you’ll receive a specialty treat!
For those looking to cultivate their green thumb, the festival offers a wealth of gardening tips, demonstrations, and interactive experiences. From learning about sustainable gardening practices to discovering the secrets behind creating your own floral masterpiece, there’s plenty of inspiration to be found for both novice and seasoned gardeners alike.
As always there is something for all ages to keep you entertained day and night. Explore a whimsical butterfly garden and set out on a lively scavenger hunt, and later in the evening, move your feet to the beat at the Garden Rocks Concert Series. You’ll see some of the great world-famous acts, including The Pointer Sisters, Flock of Seagulls, Jo Dee Messina, Sister Hazel, and more.
As the sun sets on another day at Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival, guests return to FantasyWorld Resort with hearts full of memories and spirits uplifted by the beauty that surrounds them. It’s another day of the magic of Disney and Mother Nature in perfect harmony.
