We JUST kicked off the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts, but it’s not long before we’ll be ready to start the next big festival!
Flower & Garden Festival
The Festival of the Arts only runs until February 20th, and then just a few weeks later the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival starts on March 1st. This year, it runs until July 5th (that’s over four months of festival fun!) and we’re getting some returning offerings as well as some new ones!
One of the biggest draws during the Flower & Garden Festival is the stunning topiaries that fill the planters all around the park. We’ve seen plenty of iconic characters in the past, but this year we’ve got some new faces joining them!
Buzz Lightyear topiary from 2022
In 2023, topiaries of Mirabel, Antonio, Isabela, and Luisa from Disney’s Encanto will be added to the festival, all located near the front entrance of EPCOT. But that’s not all! A new Princess Tiana topiary will also be added to The American Adventure. Those sound like some great photo ops!
Fantasia Topiaries from 2022
But besides the new topiaries, Disney has shared a few of the old favorites that will be returning, including Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs, Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Captain Hook, Tick Tock Croc, Figment, Anna, Elsa, and more. We can’t wait to see them all!
We’ll be there for the first day of the festival and we’ll make sure to share all the excitement with you along the way, including reviews of the new food, details about the entertainment, and photos of all the activities. Stay tuned to DFB for the news leading up to and during this festival!
