EPCOT’s flower‑food mashup
A YouTube video from Mar. 27 showcased EPCOT’s Flower & Garden Festival 2026 food — new seasonal menu items, plant‑forward options and immersive, Instagram‑ready presentations were the main draws (youtube.com). The festival’s focus on novelty, local produce and experiential plating is being used as a playbook for event dining this spring (youtube.com).
The festival runs March 4 through June 1, 2026, covering 90 days on the EPCOT calendar.
