Epcot Flower & Garden

When we go next year I think will still be on (we travel 23rd May). Has anyone ever been? What is it like? Any special things going on?

Next year is the 25th anniversary of F&G. They haven't released any details to know if they'll do anything special, it may just be some limited edition merchandise on top of the regular festival.

Jealous though - I really wanted to go to F&G but couldn't get the dates I wanted so shifted our whole holiday earlier. I still keep an eye out for availability though!

We went in 2015. It's lovely, they have lots of topiary trees of characters etc. They had a butterfly garden and there were a couple of other special events-these will be listed in the Flower and garden leaflet. It really was fantastic!

We were there in May this year, the whole park looked in bloom and full of so much colour it was absolutely beautiful, I was blown away.

There are lots of extra food kiosks around the park, mostly around World Showcase with a variety of snacks not usually available, we was on the dining plan and most things were a snack credit, some of my favourite snacks on my holiday were here!

Also there is "Garden Rocks", live bands playing on certain nights.

Topiaries were fun to spot walking around too!

EPCOT during flower and garden is my favourite time to go, it looks amazing with all the flowers out.
They have different food/drink like a mini food and wine festival, character topiarys, butterfly garden, Garden Rocks concerts at weekends and lots of different merchandise.

We were there during Flower & Garden Festival this year & loved it. There are now food kiosks around World showcase similar to those at food & wine festival - they weren't there last time we went to F&G festival, but they had some yummy dishes. ☺️
The butterfly tent is lovely, we had lots of beautiful butterflies land on our hands.

They have little freebies too, this year they were handing out apple sauce pouches, last time it was bags of craisins.

It's so colourful & beautiful to see. I would recommend it too.
😊
