The EPCOT Festival of the Arts may still be going on for another few days, but Disney is already hard at work getting things ready for the Flower and Garden Festival!
This year’s festival runs from March 5th through June 2nd, 2025, and it marks the 30th Anniversary of this beloved event! We’re still waiting on Disney to reveal some of the details about this floral festival, but for now, we’re taking in the sights of all the topiaries that have already popped up around EPCOT!
It’s almost spring and you know what that means — it’s time for the 2025 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival! While it doesn’t officially start until March 5th, Disney has already started installing the gorgeous character topiary scenes around the park and we can’t wait to see what else is to come! Phineas and Ferb are BACK for the first time since 2017…
…and Groot has made a reappearance this year as well, with his Green-House Mix Vol. 1.
Goofy is playing with the dandelions…
…while Bambi is hanging out with his pals…
…Flower and Thumper!
Over in the United Kingdom Pavilion, we spotted Mickey Mouse himself…
…and Tinker Bell is flying around Pixie Hollow!
The pandas have arrived in China…
…while Elsa and Anna have popped up in Norway…
…along with a troll, of course!
We also spotted Miguel and Dante from Coco in the Mexico Pavilion again this year!
In the meantime, we’ll be on the lookout for the latest Flower and Garden updates and more from Disney World. Make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for our full festival coverage and more Disney news!
