Disney4me Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 The sun is shining! The grass is growing. The trees are blooming. That can only mean one thing — it’s springtime in Disney World, and the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival is about to begin! Let’s get gardening! What better way to celebrate the end of a cold, dark winter than with a floral festival in Disney World? This year’s event will bring beautiful topiary displays, gorgeous flowers, live entertainment, and loads of good food to EPCOT. Well, before we kick things off this year, there are some important things you need to know about this year’s EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival, so we’re going to fill you in on some of the things that have been confirmed (and what you can expect). The 2025 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival will start on March 5th and run through June 2nd. This is an extra important year for the Flower and Garden Festival; it’s the 30th anniversary! Cheers to 30 years, EPCOT! EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival When the event begins on March 5th, we expect it will be crowded. Like, really crowded. In the past, the opening day of an EPCOT Festival includes long lines, heavy crowds, and busy gift shops. If you’re visiting on Day One of the festival, or on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, expect the park to be pretty crowded.

We’re looking forward to trying the new Seafood Bake and S’mores Bar at the Beach Grub booth. Plus, the new Yacht Grub menu has a Trio of Dips and Chips we can’t stop thinking about. Between that and the new Meat Assorti with beef bresaola, prosciutto ham, and salami, we are bringing our appetite to this new booth! ©Disney || Yacht Grub Plus, there are some new acts joining the Garden Rocks Concert Series in the American Adventure Pavilion — see the full lineup below. These concerts are free with EPCOT admission with showtimes usually at 5:30 PM, 6:45 PM, and 8 PM.
