EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival 2026 Magic Shots Are Blooming With PhotoPass Fun
Springtime at EPCOT means flowers in bloom, snacks on every corner, and a PhotoPass game that suddenly goes into overdrive. The 2026 EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival runs March 4 through June 1, and Disney has revealed a colorful lineup of new and returning Magic Shots that feel custom built for your camera roll. Whether you are team butterflies, team Orange Bird, or fully committed to chasing Spike the Bee across the park, this year’s Magic Shots add even more reasons to stop, pose, and smile.

Brand new Magic Shots are popping up all over EPCOT for the festival. Guests can snap a photo with Gardener Mickey using the Poppy Seed Prop and Giant Flower Magic Shot along the pathway to CommuniCore Hall, while Spike the Bee buzzes into frames with the Honey Jar Prop Magic Shot near the Germany and Italy Pavilions and over in Japan.

Thumper fans can hold a tiny topiary version of the classic character in the palm of their hand between Italy and Germany, and Encanto fans can pose with Isabela as she creates vibrant flowers in another Magic Shot nearby. Over in World Discovery, Groot appears as an adorably small topiary near Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind, proving once again that tiny Groot is undefeated.
Returning Magic Shots bring back plenty of springtime sparkle. Butterflies flutter around guests on the bridge to World Showcase, fairy wings appear at PhotoPass locations throughout World Showcase, and Orange Bird continues to surprise guests at all World Celebration PhotoPass spots.

The Tiny World Magic Shot also returns near the entrance fountain, wrapping the park into a 360-degree globe filled with festival-exclusive artwork. It all pairs perfectly with the festival’s massive lineup of character topiaries, gardens, outdoor kitchens, scavenger hunts, and the Garden Rocks Concert Series, making Flower and Garden one of EPCOT’s most photogenic seasons of the year.
