What are the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival dates?
Dates for Flower and Garden are March 5 to June 2 in 2025. This is similar to what we saw last year.
The EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival dates were February 28 through May 27 in 2024. These events run around the same time every year. For planning purposes, a March, April or May trip should be a good fit if you want to go to this festival. In 2023 the event was longer and ran from March 1 through July 5. In 2022, flower and garden was March 2 to July 4. We'll have to see if the event continues to be shorter, ending closer to spring's end instead of stretching into summer, as time goes on.

How much are tickets to the Epcot flower festival?
All Epcot festivals are included with your regular day ticket or Disney annual pass. Disney tickets use dynamic pricing. That means they cost more at times Disney perceives as peak times. One of the busiest times of the year at Disney is spring break which happens to fall at the same time as this event. The cost of a Disney World theme park ticket also varies by park. Epcot tickets during flower and garden can range from $109 to $159 plus tax. Multi day tickets lower the price per day and Florida residents can get different rates. Tickets cost more if you want to add the ability to visit more than one park in a day with Park Hopper.
