News 2022 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival

They need to make Arts last longer.

The first few weeks of Garden has their show-plants just starting to grow, and it's not that impressive. Arts could easily cover those weeks. Also, Arts is the better festival.

Arts is the best festival but the food options are a bit weak for me. They're very creative but I'm not much of a sweets person and it seems a little dessert heavy.

Waiting for the announcement of "Mickey's Food And Summertime Festival", to fill in the gap between F&W 2.0 and the original F&W.

What Epcot desperately needs is a 4th festival, IMHO. (Said no one. Ever.)

I think the only thing really stopping that happening is the weather in later July and August.

It will be interesting without an indoor space this August. It really helps to have some covered places with kiosks during the afternoons.

Maybe they could use the old Comunicore building... Oh, they bulldozed it
Well, maybe they can use the contractor tents set up around Moana's Journey of Dirt?

If only there was someplace covered they could use…

Spaceship Earth COMFIRMED to temporarily close during the 2nd half of 2022 to host F&W booths.

Can’t wait to eat gyros in Ancient Greece and ramen in that guy’s garage.

Really hope they don’t plan on making O Canada their apple stand again

They won’t. It will serve maple products instead.

Mmmm... maple products...

Let’s be real. “Maple-flavored product.” Budget won’t be there for ACTUAL maple.

Sadly, this is most likely true. Then, I stare at my maple candies I bought at World Market... produced in Canada... and the ingredient list is: maple syrup. Can't expect Disney to match what gigantic behemoth World Market can do, right?

Looking at the line-up (which isn't half bad, by the way), I feel the same way.

“Hey there, Delilah” is an oldie.

Now you know how we Gen Xers felt when '90s bands started playing F&W.

Simple Plan's first album will be 20 years old next this year

"Hey There, Delilah" was released in May 2006 (16 years ago this year).

Let's pick "Addicted" for Simple Plan as a hit, that was in....2003! Almost 20 years ago!

Excuse me, I need to review these AARP offers I just received.

Of course, nothing beats hearing "Get Low" by Lil Jon and the Yin Yang Twins over Epcot's sound system on a New Year's Eve.

I know how you feel. Reading down the list, everything was looking promising.....until I saw the ever popular Melina Leon ?, was appearing the time that we'll be at EPCOT!
