NEWS: Flower and Garden Festival Kiosks and Topiaries Are UP in EPCOT!

We’re coming to the end of the 2024 EPCOT Festival of the Arts. That means the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival is just around the corner!

2023 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival

The 2024 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival begins on February 28th, just in time for spring! While Disney hasn’t announced the menus for this year’s festival, we have been noticing not-so-little clues that the festival is almost here.

If you wander around EPCOT, you might notice a few new additions to the park. World Celebration and World Showcase have received some giant, new characters and even some new buildings!

Several new topiaries have hit the park!

As you enter the World Showcase and head toward Norway, you’ll spot an adorable troll!

Right next door at the China pavilion, you can see a couple of cute pandas rolling around.

And if you keep going to Germany, you can visit the Snow White topiaries with the princess and Dopey!

Near the Canada pavilion, you’ll spot our animal friends from Bambi.

Next to Bambi, is Thumper and the cute skunk, Flower. A topiary named Flower is practically perfect, don’t you think?

But the topiaries aren’t the only new things in EPCOT. Festival booths are popping up in World Celebration Gardens! The new CommuniCore Plaza and CommuniCore Hall in World Celebration will become festival headquarters, according to Disney. So seeing booths showing up in the gardens may be a sign that we’re steps closer to that coming true.

For now, we have one booth, but we’ll be interested to find out if more will be joining it.
