Epcot Flower and Garden festival - what are weekends like?

TigerRah · 20 Oct 18, 06:07 PM

I've read here on the Dibb and other places that Epcot is best avoided at weekends during the Food and Wine festival if you don't want to be amongst some of the more rowdy / drunk visitors.

I'm wondering what is it like at weekends during the Flower and Garden festival?

Never been to either but we are booked to go to WDW May 2019 and I'm just thinking of best days to visit Epcot.

TIA.

We regularly go in May and EPCOT is a little busier at the weekend like all parks but not like during Food and Wine. Flower and Garden has a different vibe to Food and Wine, it�s my favourite time to be at EPCOT!

Did Flower and Garden last year and didn�t see much difference at weekends, slightly busier but not too bad - loved it so going back next year!

Agree with others. We always do Flower & Garden and this year for my Dads 70th did Food & Wine. F&G is nowhere near as busy as F&W and has a much nicer vibe in my opinion. I enjoyed F&W but F&G is still the best
