Celebrating Spring at the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival

The Epcot® International Flower & Garden Festival is one of my favorite events in Walt Disney World®. The last few years, my family has visited Walt Disney World® during April or May, and we've been able to experience the magical Disney-themed topiaries, beautiful gardens, outdoor kitchens, and more first-hand. In my opinion, visiting Epcot® during the Flower & Garden Festival should be on every fan's Disney Bucket List. (Photo Credit: Magical Pix by Candi) 2018 marks the 25t
