While EPCOT Festival of the Arts has just started, we’re already thinking about the 2026 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival!

This festival runs from March 4th to June 1st, 2026, and turns EPCOT into the most gorgeous park of them all. From festival food, TONS of flowers, stunning topiaries, and more, Disney just confirmed what’s coming back, and we couldn’t be more excited.
Topiaries, Gardens, and Exhibits

There will be over 60 topiaries throughout the park, including over 31 garden and floral displays. While we’re not sure which characters are making a comeback, Disney posted a picture of The Lion King topiaries, so we’re expecting to see Simba and Rafiki.
Garden Rocks Concert Series

Over in the America Gardens Theatre, there will be a concert series, already included with your park ticket, with local Orlando artists and fan favorites everywhere. I won’t be missing Plain White T’s and 98 Degrees!
Garden Rocks Dining Package

If there’s an artist you just can’t miss (and hey, we’ve all been there), you can also purchase a dining package to get you reserved seating. You’ll get a full EPCOT meal, which usually includes an entree and dessert, or access to the buffet, and guaranteed seating for the concert held the same day. After waiting in a rainstorm to see The Fray a few years ago, I’m not getting a dining package again!
Outdoor Kitchens

Okay, this might be the best part of the festival! We don’t know any specific foods yet, but there will be a bunch of outdoor kitchens, or festival food booths, all around EPCOT. We’ll be trying everything at the festival and giving you the best reviews, so you know what’s worth your time when you visit for yourself. Cheers to Violet Lemonade!
Garden Graze

The Garden Graze is the Flower and Garden Festival’s food stroll, where you collect a stamp for certain meals at different booths. You usually get a free prize at the end, which can be another dish or an item to take home. This is usually completely plant-based, too!
Spike’s PollenNation Exploration

This scavenger hunt allows guests to search for Spike the Bee statues throughout the park. You can purchase a small map so you can add stickers to the correct spot, and you even get a completer’s prize.
Eggstravaganza Scavenger Hunt

Another scavenger hunt to try! This one is only there for a limited time during the festival, but you can find character-themed eggs around the World Showcase. Of course, you get another prize!
Butterfly Landing

Presented by AdventHealth, the butterfly garden is back! This tent is packed with flowers and plenty of butterflies. They love to fly around in the flowers and say hi to guests!
Woah! There’s so much coming, and that’s just the beginning. Make sure you keep following AllEars for everything you need to know about Disney Parks.
