If you’re like us, your calendar is probably FULL of important dates and times that you need to remember to be a productive member of society. But, have you marked your calendar for one of the most important upcoming dates — March 1st??
That’s right, March 1st is a HUGELY IMPORTANT date for Disney fans. Whether you’re heading to Disney World or planning on getting cozy on the couch, there are two BIG reasons you might want to mark your calendar!
EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival is the highlight of the spring season for Disney World, and for good reason! The 2023 Flower and Garden Festival runs from March 1st through July 5th and we’re about to spill all the details we have so far about this festival!
Disney just announced the FULL menus and list of food booths we can expect to see at this year’s fest, and you can read all about it here. Plus, NEW menu items will be debuting, and you can see everything that is returning from the festival right here.

Brunchcot!!
We’re very excited about Disney’s “new” booth — Brunchcot! It’s a mash-up of different brunch-themed dishes from other booths at the festival. We also have the COMPLETE lineup and dining information for the 2023 Garden Rocks Concert series that returns for the 2023 Festival!
But that’s not all — the Garden Graze is returning in 2023! Like the Cookie Stroll during the Festival of the Holidays, the Garden Graze is a stamp-based scavenger hunt where, by purchasing the plant-based options detailed in the passport, you’ll receive a stamp and a prize from Pineapple Promenade once your passport is complete with 5 stamps!

We are so excited to partake in all of the festivities during this festival — but let’s not forget about the other BIG EVENT happening on March 1st!
That’s right! The Mandalorian RETURNS for season 3 on March 1st! There will be 8 total episodes for this season and Star Wars fans are eager to watch!

We are eagerly anticipating the return of the Mandalorian and Grogu and cannot wait to see where these next stories take the beloved characters of the show!
So get ready for March 1st, because it’s going to be a big day!
