If you’re planning a 2024 Disney World vacation, this HUGE Disney news might affect you!

Some of our all-time favorite events in Disney World are the EPCOT festivals. There are four different festivals throughout the year, and now Disney has announced the opening DATE for the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival!

The 2024 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival will begin on February 28th, 2024!! 

This is the second festival to happen each year (Festival of the Arts takes place in January and February), and it’s a wonderful way to celebrate the spring season, as well as the beginning of summer. You’ll be able to find exclusive food and drinks at the outdoor festival kitchens (food booths), special festival merchandise, themed entertainment, and so much more.

There were more than 15 festival food booths in 2023, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2024! We’ll be watching for more announcements about the booths and menus.

The Garden Rocks Concert Series is a fan-favorite part of the festival each year. The concerts are free with EPCOT admission and take place at the America Gardens Theater, with both famous and local artists performing.

Of course, it wouldn’t be the Flower and Garden Festival without tons of beautiful plants, gardens, and topiaries throughout the park. Each World Showcase pavilion usually has a special garden that reflects the plants of that region of the world, and you’ll find topiaries of Disney characters all over the place. Last year, a new Princess Tiana topiary appeared, as well as new Encanto topiaries!

We’re hoping that the Spike the Bee festival scavenger hunt returns next year as well.

We’ll be sure to keep you updated with all the latest Disney news, so stay tuned to DFB.
