It’s a truly beautiful time to visit Epcot as the Flower and Garden Festival once again blooms throughout the park. There’s a lot to see from this year’s event, let’s take a look.
Welcome to Epcot!Goofy greets guests at the entrance of the park.Donald and friends are right behind Spaceship Earth.
Stitch over by MouseGear.Not Flower and Garden related, but I love Figment and the original attraction just celebrated its 35th birthday.
No visible exterior progress on the huge Guardians project. We’ll keep you posted when we see big changes.Interestingly, there is no Festival Center this year for Flower and Garden. Buzz is out near Mission Space again this year.
Cars topiaries on the walkway back toward the center of Future World.
The famous flower beds!The butterfly garden is back again.
Always fun to catch a monorail gliding by the topiaries.
The waterfall was not running at the Imagination pavilion this weekend.Food and Wine-esque gift card bracelets for food booth convenience.
Figment’s topiary has gotten a lot of use these last six months. He’s at the end of Future World for this festival.
This is why I still love this park. Just look at how beautiful this scene is. The tapestry of color on the banks of the lagoon, floating gardens, a monorail gliding by, and that optimistic architecture of the Imagination Pavilion in the background. There’s still a lot of magic left at Epcot.
