When Walt Disney first thought of EPCOT, he envisioned it as a futuristic community. Like the fantastical world imagined in 2015’s Tomorrowland film, with highly advanced technology, cooperative communities, and even monorail transportation. But EPCOT has evolved away from Walt’s first ideas over the years. EPCOT is now a celebration of the world and is divided into four distinct neighborhoods: World Celebration, World Discovery, World Nature, and World Showcase.
A trip to EPCOT is more than just a fun theme park experience. Instead, it’s a culturally enriching way to learn and experience new things from around the world. One of the ways that EPCOT enhances the visitor experience is with specialty festivals each year. These festivals highlight unique experiences and feature amazing attractions. Let’s explore the three main festivals featured at ECPOT in recent years.
- EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival: Disney lovers with a green thumb must check this festival out. Traditionally running in the spring (this year’s festival starts February 28th), this incredible event features fantastic floral and garden artwork. This year, topiary displays of beloved Disney characters like Buzz Lightyear, the cast of Encanto, and Mickey and the Gang will be on display throughout the event. But that’s not all. There are also incredible garden displays in the Global Gardens, showcasing incredible floral and garden designs from around the world.
