Hey Disney Vacationers! Disney just dropped some interesting news for the 2025 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, and if you love resort-inspired food and fun, this one’s for you. Guests can expect brand-new EPCOT Resort Area-themed food booths and a playground, bringing a fresh twist to this year’s festival experience. Here’s everything you need to know.
New EPCOT Resort-Themed Food Booths
For the first time, the festival will introduce two Outdoor Kitchens inspired by the EPCOT-area resort hotels: Yacht Grub and Beach Grub. These new food kiosks will feature menus packed with seafood dishes, reflecting the flavors of Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club Resorts.
- Yacht Grub: Expect a refined selection of seafood dishes inspired by the nautical theme of the Yacht Club.
- Beach Grub: A casual, beachside-inspired menu offering light and fresh seafood options.
Both kiosks will be located near a brand-new themed playground, making it the perfect stop for families looking to grab a bite while kids burn off some energy.
Stormalong Bay-Themed Playground: Playalong Bay Play Garden
With Stormalong Bay—the famous Yacht & Beach Club pool—undergoing refurbishment through the end of the festival, Disney is introducing a nautically inspired playground to keep the theme alive.
The new Playalong Bay Play Garden, presented by Smucker’s Uncrustables, will give kids a fun, interactive space to enjoy during the event. While it’s not quite the same as the real Stormalong Bay, this creative play area will celebrate the iconic pool’s spirit in a fresh, family-friendly way.
More Details Coming Soon
Disney has yet to reveal full details on the menus for the Yacht Grub and Beach Grub food booths, but with a focus on seafood, festival-goers can expect flavors that match the upscale and beachy vibes of the Yacht & Beach Club Resorts.
The 2025 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival runs from March 5 to June 2, so if you’re planning a trip, be sure to check out these brand-new festival additions. Stay tuned for more updates as Disney releases additional details on the menus and activities coming to this year’s event.
