Have you heard the huge EPCOT festival news?
The 2024 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival will begin on February 28th, 2024, and run through May 27th! We’ve got all kinds of details about the Festival (including FULL FOOD BOOTH MENUS!), so let’s take a minute now to take a closer look at all of the things that Disney has confirmed will return to the fest this year.

If you’re planning a 2024 Disney World vacation, this HUGE Disney news might affect you!
Some of our all-time favorite events in Disney World are the EPCOT festivals. There are four different festivals throughout the year, and now Disney has announced the opening DATE for the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival!
EPCOT is celebrating the holidays in big and little ways.
There is EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays happening now, which celebrates different holiday traditions around the world. Of course, we’ve seen the incredible holiday overlay of Living with the Land. But there is one adorable part of EPCOT that is celebrating the holidays, and you are probably walking right past the decorations.
EPCOT has had a BIG week!
On December 5th, an all-new land opened in EPCOT, allowing visitors access to the World Celebration Gardens. Not only that, but a new Walt Disney statue debuted, Luminous: Symphony of Us lit up the skies for the first time, AND we got to check out the return of the glowing sidewalks! Only one thing was missing… the new festival area! CommuniCore Hall and Plaza were meant to debut in late 2023, but we found out in early December that the new festival areas would not be available until 2024. While we were disappointed, we were holding on to hope that it would be complete in EARLY 2024 — based on the visual state of the construction. Let’s check it out!
January is a very BIG month for Disney World.Â
Why? Well, in several ways, things are going back to the way they were BEFORE the pandemic closures. So, for the first time in almost four years, people will be flocking to the parks for the return of the Disney Dining Plan, unlimited park hopping, and lack of park reservation requirements for most tickets. All of this will take place on January 9th! While all of that is cool and all, something happens on January 12th that we think should be a holiday. Let’s talk about it.
Okay, so your Disney World trip is booked, your travel is sorted out, you’ve got your park pass reservations, and you’ve made your advance dining reservations. You’re done with all the planning, right?
Well, no! That’s because things can change quickly in Disney World, especially when it comes to park hours. Yes, the park hours change OFTEN. We recently noticed some changes, too, that we need to tell you about, including an early closure at one park.Â
It’s no surprise that merchandise we’ve spotted in Disney World often goes viral.
Remember those giant light-up Mickey pumpkins? Those were EVERYWHERE online — and sold out fast. Those Olaf Hot Chocolate Bombs have also been wildly popular. Don’t EVEN get us started on that Figment Popcorn Bucket that EVERYONE wanted in 2022. Well, we just spotted some more viral merchandise in Disney World, and although it’s not Disney-specific per se, this could be your best chance at getting your hands on some of the items!
Okay, do you consider Genie+ a MUST in Disney World these days?
So many of us do because, let’s face it — we hate waiting in long lines, and Genie+ lets us use those shorter Lightning Lanes at many rides. However, Genie+ can get SUPER pricey sometimes, especially on busier days in Disney World (that surge pricing is NO joke). But on some days, like on December 10th, the price of Genie+ outright shocks us — but for a different reason.
EPCOT is finally approaching the end of its multi-year transformation.
We recently got to see the reveal of Dreamer’s Point and the new nighttime show, Luminous. However, not everyone is happy about these new transformation additions to the park — in fact, they have some pretty big problems with them.
