EPCOT Christmas Tree
As we inch toward the end of the year, Disney World is getting prepped for the holidays, and this year, some big events are returning. We can’t wait to party all night again at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights, and of course, we’ll be spending some days at the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. If you’re planning to visit the festival this year, we’ve got a WARNING for you!
We’re still a few weeks away from Halloween, but it’s almost time for the holiday season to kick off in Disney World!

And as part of the holiday season, the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays is returning! This festival is full of holiday cheer from around the world, with specialty eats, intriguing storytellers, exclusive entertainment, and more. Of course, one of the highlights of the festival is the nightly Candlelight Processionals…and Disney just dropped more information about this year’s performances!
We’ve made it to February and you know what that means…well, a lot of things, but it means that another EPCOT festival is almost here!
2023 Garden Rocks Concert
Currently, you can experience EPCOT’s Festival of the Arts, but on February 28th, EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival will kick off in the park! If you’re looking to get a dining package for one of the festival’s most popular experiences, they’re available RIGHT NOW!
A popular feature of each EPCOT festival is the concert series that takes place at the America Gardens Theater in World Showcase. For the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival, that’s the Garden Rocks Concert Series!

The concerts are free to view (with EPCOT admission, of course), but if you want to guarantee your seat — which is important for the concerts of some of the most popular bands that come to perform — you can purchase a Dining Package.

Well, the day has finally come! The Disney Dining Plan has returned to Disney World!
Breakfast at Cape May
With this plan, you can basically pre-pay for ALL your meals so that when you get to Disney World, all you have to worry about is where to eat. But if you’ve used the dining plan BEFORE 2020, you might not know that it’s a bit different now than it was then. We’re using the Disney Dining Plan RIGHT NOW and we’re going to give you all the DETAILS on how it has changed in 2024.

These separately ticketed events allow guests to enter the parks AFTER they close and experience FUN nighttime events. Disney recently released details about the events in 2024, including a new Disney Channel Nite event, as well as the return of Star Wars Nite and Pride Nite. Sweethearts’ Nite is also returning, and we now have details about special dining packages that will be available during that event.
We’re just a few weeks away from the Dining Plan returning to Disney World, and we’re trying to collect all the information we can before it launches!

So is Disney, though, and they just released some NEW details about next year’s festival. We previously got the dates for the festival, but now we know more about some of the food, as well as the Disney on Broadway concert series. We also got all the details about this year’s Disney on Broadway dining packages.
The Candlelight Processional is a popular event during the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. The standby line can get LONG to attend this holiday event, so you may want to choose to purchase a dining package in advance, which guarantees your spot at that night’s show.
