To snag a dining package, you’ll need to select “EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival — Garden Rocks Dining Packages” when making your reservation. You’ll select a showtime, then choose a restaurant. Reservations have already opened, and there is limited availability.
If you don’t want to go through the process of a dining reservation and a long table service meal, there is ONE quick service restaurant that offers a day-of dining package for the shows. At Regal Eagle Smokehouse in The American Adventure pavilion, the package includes a guaranteed seat at the show, an entree, non-alcoholic beverage, and dessert for $36. It’s limited availability, so you’ll want to stop by to see if they have any open spots for the day first thing.
So for those heading to the Garden Rocks concerts this year, you’re now prepared! We can’t wait to check out all that the Flower & Garden Festival has to offer in 2024.
