Every spring, EPCOT transforms into a breathtaking floral paradise for the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. This annual event showcases stunning gardens, delicious seasonal bites, and vibrant entertainment, but one of the festival’s biggest highlights is the incredible character topiaries.
Each year, the Walt Disney World Agricultural Team creates intricate topiary displays of beloved Disney characters, bringing them to life in a way that blends art and nature. These topiaries, made entirely of plants and flowers, are placed throughout the park, providing fantastic photo opportunities and an immersive festival experience.
Some of the topiaries you can find this year include:
– Woody from Toy Story
– Figment, the festival’s iconic dragon
– Belle & Beast from Beauty and the Beast
– Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs
– Tiana from The Princess and the Frog
– Encanto Characters, including Mirabel, Luisa, and Isabela
These handcrafted displays require months of planning and meticulous care from Disney’s horticulture experts, who design, sculpt, and maintain the topiaries throughout the festival. Their hard work ensures that EPCOT bursts with color, creativity, and Disney magic all season long.
Beyond the topiaries, the festival features beautiful themed gardens and interactive exhibits. Whether you’re strolling through the butterfly garden, exploring the stunning floral displays, or enjoying a peaceful moment by the tranquil water gardens, there’s something for every nature lover to appreciate.
Foodies can indulge in fresh, garden-inspired dishes at the outdoor kitchens, and music fans can enjoy the Garden Rocks Concert Series, featuring talented performers throughout the festival.
The EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival runs until June 2, 2025, and is included with regular park admission. Whether you’re a Disney fan, a gardening enthusiast, or simply looking for a beautiful way to enjoy the parks, this festival is a can’t-miss experience.
