The fun at the 2024 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival doesn’t end when the sun goes down!
Not only can you rock out to the Garden Rocks concert series but you’ll also want to check out this year’s nighttime show on Spaceship Earth!
Disney debuted the Beacons of Magic shows for the 50th Anniversary celebrations, and even though that celebration has ended, the beautiful lights on Spaceship Earth remain! Each time a new festival rolls around, the Spaceship Earth show gets a bit of a makeover.
We’ve seen Muppets-themed shows, Beauty and the Beast-themed shows, and more. For the 2024 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival, there’s an Encanto show! The song “What Else Can I Do?” plays while floral patterns and other shapes light up Spaceship Earth. (Encanto was also featured at the Spaceship Earth show for this festival last year!)
The lights in the World Celebration Gardens coordinate with the show, too, including the pretty lights on the ground!
Spaceship Earth is putting on a show in the World Celebration Gardens area to help close out the first day of the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival! ✨

We caught the show on the festival’s first night, and are still amazed by these glowing lights every time we see them!
Make sure you add the Spaceship Earth show to your festival to-do list if you want to catch this incredible display of music and lights. The show happens nightly once it gets dark and generally runs continuously throughout the evening. The regular Beacons of Magic show and the Colors of the Wind show also play each evening.
Just imagine you’re sitting here with your family, you’re full on all of your favorite snacks, you’re enjoying one last DOLE whip, and Colors of the Wind plays on Spaceship Earth before you head out of the park.

Glad to see Space Ship Earth all lit up and beautiful music playing. It did absolutely nothing on Christmas Eve. I was so disappointed in EPCOT on Christmas Eve. No Christmas anything in the front of the park 2023. Not much Christmas in back of park either other than shortened Candlelight Processional and Gospel concert with a little Christmas in it and a few Christmas trees- not much though. Definitely not worth my money which was about $180 per person for the day
