The Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival returns March 4 through May 17, 2015. But it looks as those Spring will not be completely sprung at this festival. A “Frozen” element will be in attendance. Yes, among the topiaries will be a scene from Frozen with an icy feel along with a return to summer with lots of colorful blooms.
Lest you worry that the entire festival has gone the way of Arendelle, there are still plenty of springtime favorites returning along with some new scenes, characters, events, and displays.
- In Tinkerbell‘s Garden House, you can see butterflies break free of their chrysalises, as well as learn about the migratory journey of the Monarch butterfly.
- Each weekend, Disney gardeners will seminars at the Festival Center, where you can also pick up Festival themed merchandise.
- A Shakespeare garden, dinosaur plant garden, pepper garden, and health garden will be among the 10 new mini gardens each designed to tell a story while teaching guests.
- A new Southwest desert garden will show what lives and grows in that area of the country.
- A new after-dark experience will have topiary and play gardens glowing.
