2026 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival Features 60 Topiaries and Dozens of Gardens
The EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival kicks off in just over three weeks, which means Walt Disney Imagineering’s horticulture pros are entering their busiest season. Between now and opening day, they’ll be busy cultivating 60 character topiaries that will need to hold their poses for the festival’s 89-day run.
The Toy Story crew will greet guests entering the park. The placement feels strategic, seeing as Toy Story 5 arrives on June 19, 2026. Last year’s headliners, Moana and Maui, aren’t listed. Neither are The Muppets. Here’s hoping Disney is playing the slow reveal game.

2026 Flower & Garden Festival gardens
Topiaries get the headlines, but the festival’s 31 gardens are just as impressive. This year’s highlights include Butterfly Landing (a walk-through habitat), Camp Get Out ’N’ Play Garden, Blossoms of Fragrance, the English Tea Garden, and the Honey Bee-stro.
They’re all worth your time. Unless you’re wildly allergic to spring. In that case, we suggest riding Soarin’ on repeat. Or better yet, head over to Hollywood Studios.
