EPCOT Flower and Garden 2026 Topiaries by Neighborhood

World Celebration

The Main Entrance is anchored by a full Toy Story crew: Buzz Lightyear, Woody, Bo Peep and her sheep, Lotso, and the Pixar Ball. It’s an impressive opening statement for the festival. From there, head into World Celebration Gardens for Figment surrounded by topiary flowers — a classic festival staple that never gets old.

Near the Imagination! Pavilion, you’ll find two separate display clusters. First, Simba is joined by Rafiki, Mufasa, and Sarabi from The Lion King. Just a short walk away, the Encanto crew arrives with Mirabel, Antonio, Isabela, and Luisa. Between the Imagination! Pavilion and World Showcase, Goofy stands on his own.

On the bridge to World Showcase, look for Phineas and Ferb, then Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Chip ‘n’ Dale, and Pluto all together. Bambi and Friends and a collection of butterfly topiaries also line the bridge path.

World Discovery

World Discovery brings a Marvel and Pixar mix. Near Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company, Groot stands tall on his own from Guardians of the Galaxy. Also near the Joffrey’s area, Lightning McQueen and Mater show up side by side near Connections Café. Near Creations Shop, Mike Wazowski and Sulley from Monsters, Inc. are paired together. And near Mission: SPACE, Stitch makes his solo appearance.

World Nature

Near The Land Pavilion, Donald Duck leads the group with Huey, Dewey, and Louie. It’s a fun nod to the agricultural themes of The Land right next door.

Between Disney Traders and Port of Entry

Moana, Maui, Heihei, and Pua are grouped together in the plaza area between Disney Traders and Port of Entry — one of the most visible topiary clusters as you enter or leave World Showcase.

When to Visit and How Long the Festival Runs

The 2026 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival runs through June 1, 2026. That gives you several months to work a festival visit into your Walt Disney World trip.

The topiaries are spread across the entire park, so give yourself time to walk through each neighborhood and catch them all. World Showcase alone has over a dozen display locations, and they’re worth taking slowly. Early morning or late evening light makes for the best photos. The characters are detailed enough that you’ll want to stop at most of them.

Plan Your EPCOT Flower and Garden 2026 Topiary Tour

With more than 60 characters on display, the EPCOT Flower and Garden 2026 topiaries are the best they’ve been in years. Start at the Main Entrance Toy Story display, work through World Celebration and Discovery, then take your time through every World Showcase pavilion. Save Winnie the Pooh and Friends near the UK Pavilion for a quiet moment — it’s one of the most charming clusters in the entire festival. The event runs through June 1, so there’s still plenty of time to plan your visit. Follow DisMornings for more festival coverage all season long.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who. We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions. On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over. He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip. Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had. Will most definitely be using him again. He took care of everything and kept me on track. Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything. Can't thank him enough. He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
