Why You Might Want to WAIT To Go to the 2024 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival

EPCOT’s Festival of the Arts is coming to an end, which means the Flower & Garden Festival is almost here!

This spring festival runs from February 28th through May 27th and will feature tons of delicious foods from a variety of food booths. Full menus have recently been announced, but here’s why you may want to WAIT and go to the festival later this year.

At the EPCOT Farmers Feast food booth (called outdoor kitchens during this festival), you’ll find an entree and dessert available for tasting. However, this menu won’t stay the same throughout the entire festival — it’s going to change THREE TIMES between February and May!

The first menu available is the Early Bloom Menu, which is available from February 28th through March 30th. It’ll feature a NEW Veal Tenderloin and a Strawberry Rhubarb Upside-down Cake.

The Strawberry Rhubarb Upside-down Cake is a returning treat this year! In the past, we thought that the sweet strawberry flavor was fresh and light and the cake was moist. We’re hoping this one delivers again this year.

The second menu will be introduced on March 31st and run through April 27th, and that’s the Springtime Menu. This menu will include a NEW Seared Scallop with tomato risotto and a NEW Blueberry Buckle with lemon crème fraîche.

And finally, the third menu is the Summer Solstice menu, available April 28th through May 27th. You’ll be able to grab a Seared Pork Tenderloin and a Peach Galette to try. Both of these are NEW menu items for 2024. Look out for that Peach Galette — it’s made with ginger vanilla whipped cream. YUM!

Depending on which of these menus sounds the most appealing to you, you may want to wait to experience the festival so you can experience your favorite. Don’t worry, though; we’ll be trying out each of the different menus to tell you what we think!
