Outdoor Kitchen Menus Revealed For 2018 Epcot Flower & Garden Festival At Walt Disney World

It is less than a month until the start of the 2018 Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival, and guests are already looking forward to a lot more than beautiful displays. Epcot has become synonymous with great food, and this year’s early festival is going to be no different. With the Flower & Garden Festival set to kick off on Feb. 28, 2018, the full menus for all of the outdoor kitchens have now been revealed and they look incredible.

With the Epcot Festival of the Arts just about to finish up its run, it will only be a couple of weeks until Flower & Garden moves in. Preparations are already underway at Walt Disney World’s second park as the displays of flowers started being put in place this past week.

This year, the festival is going to run for a full 90 days which will give guests numerous opportunities to enjoy all the fun. It will begin on Feb. 28 and run through May 28, and there will be additional fun such as the Easter Egg-stravaganza and Honey Bee Scavenger Hunt thrown in during that time.

Many guests, though, are looking to the various food options which will be available at the Outdoor Kitchens spread around World Showcase and even a couple in Future World. As reported by WDW Magic, there will even be a new “Honey Bee-stro” kitchen in place for 2018.
