Disney World’s EPCOT will reopen to guests again starting July 15th, along with Disney’s Hollywood Studios. (Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom reopened over the weekend).
Wednesday is a big day for guests at EPCOT for another reason, too… it is also the day that the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival kicks off! And even though the Festival will run well into the fall, guests at the Festival will also experience aspects of the park’s SPRING event, the Flower & Garden Festival!
For instance, Disney has already announced that guests will be able to see the Remy topiary in the France pavilion which made its debut for the Flower & Garden Festival, and guests will be able to purchase merchandise from the spring event, too. It was so nice seeing this little guy with his giant wooden spoon today!
But guess what?? Today, by way of being invited guests to a Cast Member preview, we are in EPCOT today… and we spotted a few other topiary friends still in the park! We saw Bambi, Flower, and Thumper in Future World outside of the temporary Mouse Gear merchandise location.
And we’ll keep updating this post if we spot any other Flower and Garden topiaries throughout the day! That way, if you have plans to be in EPCOT during the park’s initial reopening, be sure to keep your eyes extra peeled for potential Flower & Garden-inspired fun!
