LOOK INSIDE Flower & Garden Festival GuideMap and Passport
Today is March 3rd and do you know what that means!? It’s the start of the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival Disney friends! And to celebrate our MickeyBlogger is on the scene capturing a first look for us of some of the sights, sounds and flavors of this incredible festival!
If you’ll be visiting EPCOT this month, be sure to look for the EPCOT GuideMaps and Festival Passports! Both of these items are essential for getting the most out of your Flower & Garden visit!
The new GuideMap features a Flower & Garden Festival image!
Inside you’ll find all sorts of helpful information including a full map of the theme park (where you can find attractions, eateries and amenities) as well as helpful information related to the Fest!
And we are so excited to share with you a FIRST LOOK at this year’s Festival Passports! These are must-have for those looking to get the best out of the fast!
You’ll find them at special kiosks around the park.
This year a tomato reigns supreme on the front cover!
On pages 2 & 3 you’ll find a handy guide to the topiaries you’ll find around EPCOT. These are one of the HUGE highlights of a Flower & Garden visit and are simply not-to-be-missed! There’s even a handy checklist so you can tick off the topiaries as you go!
The Gardens are another fabulous feature. Above you’ll find a guide to where you can find them! My favorites are the Shakespeare and Tea Gardens at the UK Pavilion!
On the inside front cover you can make the passport your own with a photo an memorable information (my daughter LOVES to do this!.) The passport also provides a rundown of various experiences to be on the lookout for including topiaries, gardens, outdoor kitchens and more!
The passport also outlines all of the Kid-friendly activities you’ll find at EPCOT during the Fest. Don’t miss a visit to the Butterfly Pavilion! Select entertainment will also be available throughout your visit and the passport provides some helpful details on where to find performances!
You’ll also want to have your debit cards at the ready because each year EPCOT unveils exclusive festival merchandise that is sure to delight! However, the real draw of the Passport is the FULL MENUS to the 20+ Outdoor Kitchens you’ll find scattered throughout the park.
As you can see form the images above, these aren’t your ordinary Disney snacks but are culinary works of art designed to enhance your Flower & Garden experience! Leave it to Disney to take Avocado Toast to the next level!
We can’t wait to try the Sweet Corn Spoon Bread at the Honey Bistro that comes with house-made whipped honey butter – YUM!
Dole Whip Lovers will want to head over to Pineapple Promenade for a Dole Whip with or without rum!
And speaking of cocktails how does the Twinings of London Energize Matcha Cranberry & Lime Green Tea with Hanger 1 Makrut Lime Vodka sound!?
Bubble tea fans will definitely want to head over to Lotus House to get their classic version!
If there’s one treat I’ve had my eye on its the Funnel Cake being served up at the American Adventure! It comes with lemon cheesecake ice cream and blueberry sauce! Yes please!
Looking for something fun for the kids? Frushi is back for another year! This fruit-bases sushi is absolutely stunning and is sure to bring a smile to their faces!
The France Pavilion is known for its delectable sweet treats and this year is no exception. We have our eyes on the beignets with vanilla cream and caramel!
Don’t forget to head over to Festival Showplace for some delicious treats including their Beef Brisket which is divine!
Be sure to pop into the World Showplace where you’ll find a whole host of incredible treats including Key Lime Pie and Fried Green Tomatoes.
If you’ve been following along with MickeyBlog, you’ll know that this year EPCOT is offering the Garden Graze Scavenger Hunt. Use your passport to collect stamps of five plant-based dishes and you’ll get a FREE treat!
The menu includes awesome treats from an Impossible Burger to Potato Pancakes!
