Taste of EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival

Walt Disney World is streamlining its festivals for 2021, and that includes the new Taste of EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, which kicks off March 3.

Taste of EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival - Figment

Celebrating Spring, this year’s festival will offer nearly 100 individual topiaries all around the park, many featuring Disney characters, along with 20 different garden areas, like the English Tea Garden Presented by Twinings of London in the United Kingdom pavilion.

Guests can enjoy food and beverage samples from more than 20 locations, including Outdoor Kitchens around World Showcase. New options this year include:

  • EPCOT Sunshine Griddle, offering Avocado Toast, Shrimp and Grits, Corned Beef Brisket Hash and more
  • EPCOT Farmers Feast, featuring Spring Onion Soup, Duck Confit and more
  • The Lavender Honey Mustard-marinated Chicken Flatbread at The Honey Bee-stro Hosted by National Honey Board
  • Impossible Sausage and Kale Soup at Trowel & Trellis Hosted by Impossible Foods
  • Lemon-Orange Smoothie in a new Orange Bird sipper cup at The Citrus Blossom
    Bayou Cocktail at Magnolia Terrace
  • Maple Popcorn Shake at Northern Bloom

And while the festival won’t host national bands, as in year’s past, it will still be offering live entertainment including musical groups from the Orlando area performing songs of yesterday and today at America Gardens Theatre every Friday through Monday of the festival, and EPCOT a cappella favorite Voices of Liberty. You’ll also find The Jammin’ Gardeners on the Mill Stage at the Canada pavilion.

If all that isn’t enough, there are even three scavenger hunts, including one for foodies, for guests to enjoy.

The Taste of EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival runs through July 5, 2021, and is included with admission to EPCOT. Food and beverage samples are an additional cost.
