I am positively buzzing with excitement for the start of the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival! I love seeing the World Showcase and Future World blanketed in beautiful floral arrangements and posing with “botanical busts” of some of my favorite Disney characters. There’s just something refreshing about a being surrounded by flowers and the irresistible smell of a lush garden, but my favorite part about any festival has to be the special-edition Disney Gift Card – and this year there are three! More designs mean your family members can each choose the card that speaks to them or you can budget separately for sweet treats and savory eats – the possibilities are endless!
This year’s collection includes a sunflower, a cosmos, and our favorite honeybee, Spike! Look at these cards in the Florida sunshine and watch the flowers and Spike’s wings sparkle. Doesn’t it just make you happy? Of course, you might be a little more excited about what the Outdoor Kitchens have to offer. Luckily, you can use any of these Disney Gift Cards for practically all things Disney! Yes, that includes your yearly allowance of frushi in addition to practically all things Disney. Load a mini Disney Gift Card with as little as $15 and wear it around your wrist while you explore everything the festival has to offer.

Each Flower & Garden Festival-themed gift card has a removeable tag with implanted wildflower seeds. Take the tag home with you, plant it in a pot or your garden, keep it watered well and you can have your own Flower & Garden Festival right at home! Plus, in alignment with Disney’s green initiatives, these special tags are made from 100% recycled paper.
A little too far west to join in the floral festivities? Disney California Adventure park is celebrating flavors abound at the Food & Wine Festival and we’ve got a Disney Gift Card for that too! Load up a wristlet with as little as $15 and try some of the best food and wine you’ll ever taste!
Disney Gift Cards are reloadable and never expire. Just stop by a merchandise or food and beverage location and ask a cast member for assistance. If you don’t spend it all at the festival, know that these and all other Disney Gift Cards can still be used for practically all things Disney from theme park tickets to Mickey merchandise at Disney Destinations nationwide!
