Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot

closeHey, just so you know ... this post is now about 14 years and 11 months old. Please keep that in mind as it very well may contain broken links and/or outdated information.

We had friends from out of town visiting over Thanksgiving last year who wanted to take their kids to Walt Disney World so we ended up getting Florida resident seasonal passes. We’d never been over to Disney in March (usually my March weekends involve Spring Training baseball) so we had never been to the Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot.

We had a totally free day yesterday, so we drove over to use our passes and spend a few hours at the Experimental Prototype City of Tomorrow to check out the festival and have a nice family day together.

We couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather: it was nice and breezy, lots of clouds, and temps in the mid-80s, just fantastic. My daughter rode Test Track for the first time and loved it. We also rode Soarin’ which is one of our favorites. The flower, topiary, and plant displays were colorful and plentiful.

My daughter especially enjoyed the butterfly garden and also the tea plant displays in London.


Good times … a perfect little day trip. We even heard the sonic boom as the space shuttle landed over on the coast.
