Orlando Vacationers Enjoy Disney’s Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival
The 2009 Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival kicked off on March 18th and runs through May 31st. The festival is in it’s 16th year and is presented by Dinseynature. You certainly do not need to be an expert gardener to attend either.
Epcot is always landscaped well but the International Flower & Garden Festival take Epcot to a whole new level. There are literally untold millions of flowers on display in a wide array of colors and sizes. If you love spending time in the great outdoors, then this is the perfect festival for you. Mother Nature certainly shows off in a big way.
Disney has catered the event to all ages. Children will enjoy Let’s Get Moving with Evos & Weevos play systems, and the Pirate Adventure Zone. On the weekends, horticulturists are conducting workshops and offering gardening tips for gardening enthusiasts. The ‘Flower Power’ concert theme takes place on the weekends and offers live music for all.
One great thing about taking an Orlando vacation at this time of year is that the Florida weather is most enjoyable. It’s not too humid and not too hot. This makes for an enjoyable day outside and this Disney event certainly capitalizes on Florida’s great weather at this time of year with this Spring Time Festival.
