EPCOT Festival Dates for 2025
Epcot hosts four unique festivals throughout the year: the Flower and Garden Festival, the Food and Wine Festival, the Festival of the Arts, and the Festival of the Holidays. Thankfully, these festivals rotate with the seasons, so you’ll have a pretty good idea of what to anticipate before the dates are released. However, it’s always good to know the dates, especially when planning your time at Epcot.
For instance, if you visit during the Flower and Garden, you might want to allow time in your schedule to see the incredible topiaries throughout the park. Another example is if you were visiting during the week of Thanksgiving, you might want to spend your time at Epcot later in the week because the festival usually (not always) starts the day after Thanksgiving.
So below, we’ve provided a list of dates for every festival at Epcot in 2025. We’ve also listed last year’s dates, so you’ll know the typical timeframe if the 2025 dates haven’t been released. Regardless, Epcot’s Festivals are a great way to experience unique offerings that otherwise wouldn’t be available.
Here are a few details for each festival:
- Epcot’s International Flower and Garden Festival: This festival takes place in the Spring and celebrates all things gardening and flowers. The festival’s primary offerings include food booths (kitchens), garden displays (topiaries), and a concert series.
- Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival, which takes place in the Fall, celebrates international cuisine. This festival offers food booths (marketplaces), wine tastings, and demonstrations from celebrity chefs.
- Epcot’s International Festival of the Arts, which takes place in the winter, celebrates art. Activities range from musical performances to artists displaying elaborate chalk drawings on sidewalks in the park. Additionally, culinary food booths (studios) are available.
- Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays takes place in the winter and celebrates worldwide holiday traditions. This festival offers food booths (holiday kitchens), storytelling sessions, and Santa’s from around the world!
