Epcot this year will celebrate 24 years of the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival this spring.
The 2017 event kicks off March 1 and runs through May 29. During the festival, guests can enjoy new outdoor kitchens and take topiaries designed after Disney characters.
Topiaries designed after Anna and Elsa will grace the landscape at the Norway Pavilion in celebration of the Frozen Ever After attraction. The new attraction displaced the fan favorite Malstrom attraction.
Meanwhile, colorful gardens will line the path to The Land Pavilion where guests can discover Soarin’ Around the World. The favorite attraction now takes guests to new heights with scenes from Sydney, Australia, the Great Wall of China and other destinations around the globe.
Sightseers’ Delight started publishing in June 2016. The site, published by The DeFeo Groupe, collects and curates content about places where historical events large and small happened. The site builds off the legacy of The Travel Trolley, which launched in June 2009. The site aimed to be a virtual version of the trolley tours offered in so many cities.
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla., Feb. 8 /PRNewswire/ — The Magic Kingdom Philharmonic Band came marching down Main Street, U.S.A. Monday behind New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees. He was riding in a pewter convertible with Mickey Mouse, waving to cheering fans. He’d earned the ride – and the adulation – Sunday night by marching the Saints to a 31-17 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Super Bowl XLIV in South Florida. Celebrating Super Bowl heroes
Sure, Walt Disney said his theme parks would never be finished, and over the years, the parks have seen a number of changes. Most of the updates have been welcomed, but often times, these changes leave Disney fanatics longing for the past.
Epcot guests will soon be able to visit the kingdom of Arendelle when the highly anticipated attraction Frozen Ever After opens in the Norway Pavilion. The ride replaces the popular Maelstrom attraction that closed in 2014.
