We’re buzzing over a scavenger hunt at the 2025 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival!
EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival is PACKED with tasty eats and gorgeous floral arrangements, but it also features some awesome family activities. One of the most anticipated inclusions is the annual Spike’s Pollen-Nation Exploration, and we, once again, decided to get some hands-on experience!
Spike’s Pollen-Nation Exploration is a scavenger hunt following Spike the Bee on his pollination trail throughout EPCOT and for the duration of the festival (March 5th through June 2nd, 2025). Based around the Disney Honeybee, Spike, this scavenger hunt features a hunt map and stickers, which you can purchase at a variety of gift shops, including Gateway Gifts, Creations Shop, World Traveler, Disney Traders, and Port of Entry for $9.99 (plus tax) while supplies last.
Once you make a discovery, you’ll apply the stickers to the map. Then, you can turn your completed map in at Disney Traders, Creations Shop, or World Traveler. You still get to keep your map, but a Cast Member will stamp it to show that you have already redeemed your prize.
This year’s prizes are different character watering canisters! You can choose from Orange Bird, Spike the Bee, the Caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland, and Mickey Mouse!
You can choose to grab your prize when you purchase your map or wait to reward yourself when you match each sticker on your map. As a tip, we do recommend grabbing your prize first thing as some prizes do sell out. You can always check other redemption gift shops to see if they have the prize you want in stock!
So, that begs the question: Do we think this scavenger hunt is worth it? We believe it is a super fun way to get to explore the festival and can be especially fun for families with little ones as well as kids at heart! You also get to learn about all the different gardens featured in the festival while you look for Spike!
It’s not a true EPCOT festival without a scavenger hunt! 🐝✨ We’re on the lookout for Spike the Bee—think we can find them all before we get distracted by more festival snacks? pic.twitter.com/j4UfJP74gu
