Spike the Bee is BACK at the 2024 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival and he’s brought back his Spike’s Pollen Nation Exploration Scavenger Hunt with him! And just WAIT until you see this year’s PRIZE!

Can you SPOT SPIKE?

The 2024 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival is in full bloom, and this year it runs through May 27th. In addition to the food booths, character topiaries, and Garden Rocks concerts, you can also check out this annual scavenger hunt featuring the cutest bee EVER. Is this activity worth the cost? Come with us to find out!

UPDATE: As of March 15th, we noticed the prize for this scavenger hunt CHANGED! Find out more about the new prize here.

Spike’s Pollen Nation Exploration scavenger hunt takes place throughout EPCOT and lasts for the duration of the festival. The Disney honeybee character named Spike is pollinating his way through the festival, and guests can follow his trail.

Look who’s buzzin’ around the Festival!

You can buy a scavenger hunt map and stickers from World Traveler, Creations Shop, Port of Entry, Disney Traders, and even some of the festival booths!

The map costs $9.99, but you can apply Annual Passholder and Disney Vacation Club discounts. You’ll search for Spike the Bee around EPCOT and place the stickers in the correct spot on the map.

Once your map is complete, you can return it to Creations, World Traveler, Port of Entry, or Disney Traders and collect a prize! Back in 2023, the prize was an array of cups and plates featuring Orange Bird, Spike the Bee, Figment, or Snow White! This year’s prize is even BETTER in our opinion — you get to choose a miniature game of corn hole!

The PRIZES

There are four different designs to choose from: Spike the Bee, Coco, EPCOT logo, and Orange Bird.

Seriously, this might be the most excited we’ve ever been for an EPCOT scavenger hunt prize.

So, is this fun little scavenger hunt worth $10?

Whether or not you complete the map, you can redeem it for a prize. This is a great activity to keep little ones busy, or it’s fun if you’re simply wanting to walk around the park and take in all the sights of the Flower and Garden Festival. No matter what, you’re guaranteed to get a prize while supplies last. We think this is definitely worth the time and money spent, because you can take it at your own pace.
