Magic is in bloom this spring and early summer with EPCOT’s International Flower and Garden Festival, returning March 5 through June 2, 2025. This festival - an event full of flowers, flavor, and fun - allows guests to explore all their senses and enjoy the beauty of gardens and growth.

Guests all of ages will find experiences to enjoy and explore but here are three fun FREE activities you can do during the festival:

1) Explore the topiaries. There are topiaries made of flowers, plants, fruits, and seeds installed throughout the park featuring many of your favorite Disney pals. You’ll find classic characters and recent additions to the Disney and Pixar families. Make it a fun game to see which characters you can find during your visit.

2) Visit Butterfly landing before dusk. Get up close with butterflies and learn more about these beautiful creatures at Butterfly Landing next to the Land and Imagination pavilions. This attraction closes at dusk, so be sure to visit during daylight hours.

3) Garden Rocks series. With performers like Rick Springfield, 98* degrees, Jo De Messina, the Pointer Sisters and more showcasing their talents, guests can find their own groove. With three showtimes daily, each typically lasting 20-30 minutes, guests can find the full schedule of performances HERE.

Bonus: If you are visiting with littles- be sure to explore Camp Get Out N Play Garden area.

We also love the Spike’s Pollenation Exploration Scavenger Hunt ($9.99 plus tax for an official map). Explore EPCOT while following Spike the Bee on his pollination trail. You won’t believe they ways he’ll “bee” busy collecting nectar and pollen throughout the park!

Outdoor Kitchens feature garden-fresh fare focused on springtime. You’ll find delish dishes and specialty beverages that are festival-exclusive and only available during Flower and Garden time! One of our favorite eats at this festival is the Frushi at the Japan booth.

Often, ingredients like honey are used as both a way to delight your tastebuds as well as educate Festival guests, too, through interactive exhibits like the one pictured below which was featured during the 2024 festival. You can view the full list of Outdoor Kitchens with their menus HERE.

If you’d like to take in the sights, sounds, scents, and tastes of spring, there’s no time like the present to contact your Goofy Getaways Travel Consultant. Let’s get you to Walt Disney World during the 2025 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival!
