Welcome to the 19th annual Epcot® International Flower & Garden Festival presented by HGTV. With our authentic architecture, stunning scenery and wonderful cultural representatives from around the world, Epcot is a beautiful destination any day of the year, but especially now, when “excitement is in bloom.”

This year’s 75-day festival, which runs through May 20, not only offers the perfect opportunity to help plan spring and summer gardening, it’s also an absolute delight for the five senses. Everywhere you turn, the park springs to life with colorful flowers and gardens, dazzling Disney character topiaries, live music and fascinating programs shared by many of HGTV’s on-air and nationally recognized designers. In addition, Master Gardeners, Disney Horticulturists, local gardening talent and gardening experts from the Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences at the University of Florida will all offer great ways to sharpen your green-thumb skills and techniques at the Festival Center, open 10:00 am – 5:00 pm daily.

As always, the topiaries are incredible and this year you’ll discover more than 100 of these works of artistic-growth, including more than 75 Disney character topiaries. The Flower Power Concert Series features performers from the 1960s and 1970s every weekend during the festival and there’s nothing quite like stepping into the middle of hundreds of native butterflies at Bambi’s Butterfly House.

Whether you’re on a mission to invest in your inner gardener or simply want to experience the exceptional sights, sounds, smells and sensations from around the world, you have come to the right place–and we’re so glad you’re here!
