Air Supply finally returns... Maybe Disney's come to their senses that nobody wants to see a bunch of 2000's-era midcharters?

That's always been the F&G vibe. Remember when it was Flower Power Concerts until all the 60s bands started dying off?

 

[Nottamus]

2025 will be our first spring trip in a few years - always liked Flower and Garden band lineups

Looking forward!

Summer festival is a no go

Summer festival is a no go

Are you expecting F&W to not start any earlier either?

I am expecting the same as last year, with a festival break in the summer. There is a significant issue relating to operations of the kiosks in the summer.

Like, they can't keep them cool enough so CM's don't keep dropping like flies?

Maybe they'll at least bring back the Encanto show next to the CommuniCore Hall Summer Homeless Encampment.

Thunderstorms shut down the outside registers and turn them into cash only nightmares

I was hoping they'd eventually do a DCA-style summer festival with centralized ordering and simply pick up at the booths. Or even a redemption necklace for this festival.

But even still, there's no reason they couldn't execute a miniature festival with menu items at the two Communicore hall booths, connections, land cart, and sunshine seasons plus some entertainment on the stage

Epcot was dead last summer. Lack of festivals, in a park dependent on festivals, certainly didn't help.

Central Florida in May and September are certainly not a respite from heat and humidity. Probably a lack of slave labor from the CP.

 

[WorldExplorer]

My bet: CommuniCore Hall isn't going to look good for this festival either.

And they don't accept cash in the parks now.

The heat isn't great but I appreciate the chance to enjoy Epcot festival free for a few months each year.

Little young for that, but I did hear a story once about how an incident with The Monkees forced Disney to stop having post-show M&Gs with bands. Disney for the past few years has just been slotting in a lot of bands from when I grew up (2000s and 2010s) while they have bands from decades before still in touring shape... Just felt odd to me.
