Running March 4 through June 1, 2026, the Flower &amp; Garden Festival fills the park with colorful topiaries, seasonal food booths, and live music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the highlights of the EPCOT International Flower &amp; Garden Festival is the <a href=\"https:\/\/disneyworld.disney.go.com\/entertainment\/epcot\/flower-garden-rocks-concert-series\/\"><strong>Garden Rocks Concert Series<\/strong><\/a>, where visiting artists perform nightly at the America Gardens Theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seating for these concerts is free with park admission, but it\u2019s also <strong>first-come, first-served<\/strong>. Popular shows often fill up early. If you want guaranteed seating, the <a href=\"https:\/\/disneyworld.disney.go.com\/dining\/epcot\/garden-rocks-dinner-package\/\"><strong>Garden Rocks Dining Package<\/strong><\/a> is one of the easiest ways to secure a spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What&#8217;s Included in the Garden Rocks Dining Package?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Garden Rocks Dining Package combines a dining reservation at a participating EPCOT restaurant with <strong>reserved seating for a concert performance later that evening<\/strong>. Without the package, guests must join the standby line for seating, which can begin forming well before showtime for popular artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Garden Rocks concerts take place daily during the EPCOT International Flower &amp; Garden Festival at the America Gardens Theatre in the World Showcase. There are three shows per day &#8211; 5:30 PM, 6:45 PM, 8:00 PM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dining packages include <strong>guaranteed seating for one of these performances,<\/strong> on the same day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At most participating restaurants, the Garden Rocks Dining Package includes an entr\u00e9e and dessert, or one full buffet (where applicable), as well as a nonalcoholic beverage (or alcoholic beverage for Guests 21 and older).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Restaurants Offering Garden Rocks Dining Packages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year there are 15 EPCOT restaurants participate in the dining package program:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Biergarten Restaurant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chefs de France<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Coral Reef Restaurant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Garden Grill Restaurant (Breakfast)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>La Cr\u00eaperie de Paris<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>La Hacienda de San Angel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Le Cellier Steakhouse<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nine Dragons Restaurant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rose &amp; Crown Dining Room<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spice Road Table<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Teppan Edo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tutto Italia Ristorante<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Via Napoli Ristorante e Pizzeria<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Regal Eagle Smokehouse (same-day dining packages only)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is the Garden Rocks Dining Package Worth It?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many visitors, the dining package is the easiest way to enjoy the concert series without waiting in long lines. It can be especially helpful if you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Want guaranteed concert seating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are visiting during spring break or other busy weeks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Want to see a specific artist<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plan to dine at EPCOT anyway<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to it&#8217;s popularity and the calendar overlap with many school Spring Breaks, The Flower &amp; Garden Festival is one of EPCOT\u2019s busiest seasons. Dining reservations tend to fill up quickly, but even when reservations appear sold out, availability can change as other guests cancel or adjust their plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How MouseWatcher Can Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the dining package restaurant option you want isn\u2019t available, it doesn\u2019t always mean it\u2019s gone for good. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/how\">MouseWatcher<\/a> can notify you when new availability appears due to cancellations<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of checking reservation pages repeatedly, you can set alerts for specific restaurants, dates, and times. MouseWatcher searches for reservation openings 24\/7. When a reservation opens up, you\u2019ll receive a notification so you can book it immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/\">Set your Garden Rocks Dining Package alert now!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how Garden Rocks dining packages work during the EPCOT Flower &#038; Garden Festival, including participating restaurants, concert seating, and tips for finding hard-to-get Disney dining reservations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2258,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[42,1],"tags":[202,203,200,201],"class_list":["post-2233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-seasonal-events","category-uncategorized","tag-disney-dining-reservations","tag-epcot-dining-reservations","tag-epcot-flower-and-garden-festival","tag-garden-rocks-dining-package"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2233"}],"version-history":[{"count":27,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2233\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2261,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2233\/revisions\/2261"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mousewatcher.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
