EPCOT To Offer New ‘Behind the Seeds: Glimmering Greenhouses’ Tour This Holiday Season
While Walt Disney World is known for its timeless holiday traditions, such as the Candlelight Processional, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, or perhaps the gingerbread house at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, one of my favorite Disney Christmas experiences is relatively new.
Living with the Land has long gotten Christmas decorations during the holiday seasons. In 2019, however, Disney introduced “Merry and Bright Nights” as part of the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays.
Since rebranded as “Glimmering Greenhouses,” the holiday overlay of Living with the Land features plenty of festive fun, Christmas cheer, and, of course, lights. For fans of the attraction, it is almost an entirely new experience.


Living with the Land: Glimmering Greenhouses will return this holiday season.
If you are anything like me, and can’t get enough of Living with the Land, I have great news!
Behind the Seeds: Glimmering Greenhouses
From November 29 through December 30, 2024, EPCOT is offering a special holiday-themed version of the Behind the Seeds tour.
Behind the Seeds: Glimmering Greenhouse will take guests through The Land’s greenhouses, where they will learn about the crops that bring festive flavors to life, get a closer look at the attraction’s stunning light displays, and see the sustainable growing techniques that bring the greenhouses to life firsthand.
Unlike the traditional Behind the Seeds tour, Glimmering Greenhouses will only be offered at 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM.
Advanced reservations for the holiday tours will go on sale on September 30, 2024, and cost $45 per guest. Same-day reservations and walk-ins will also be available on a limited basis.
I, for one, can’t wait!
