Spring at Disney World Bucket List

Spring is here…and although the cold front that’s hitting the east coast says otherwise…

Disney World is celebrating the season nonetheless. 

My second favorite time of year to visit is Spring at Disney World, following fall and the Halloween season, and with Disney planting beautiful bright flowers everywhere on property it is a stunning site to see.I’ve added stuff to this list that is a must-do for us during Spring at Disney World as well as things that are new that we are super excited to try on our upcoming trip!

Spring at Disney World Bucket List

Epcot Flower and Garden Festival

One of the biggest must-dos for any Spring at Disney World Bucket List is the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival.

This festival typically starts in March and runs until the end of June each year!!

Such a beautiful a site to see. 

The character topiaries, garden locations, and outdoor kitchens make this festival a scavenger hunt of sorts with the Epcot Flower and Garden Passport available to check off locations you visit.

Spring Sweet Treats and Drinks

Everything around the Disney World Resort changes with the seasons, even the treats and drinks!

You can find spring influenced cupcakes and cake pops, candy apples, and more inside of the confectionary cases around the resort and parks.

So far the rose gold cupcake, which isn’t necessarily spring related, is at the top of my list! It’s pink and pretty and I want it something bad!!

There is also a NEW Flower Crown Cupcake from Main Street Bakery inside the Magic Kingdom that is definitely Instagram worthy!!

With all the New cupcakes out for spring you could definitely do a Spring at Disney World cupcake challenge!

There are several spring-sprung beverages located around the Disney World Resort.

You will find alcoholic and non-alcoholic varieties alike, including a Blueberry Moscato from the Berry Basket at the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival, a NEW Mint Julep Lemonade Slushy from Casey’s Corner inside the Magic Kingdom, the Wine Slushies at Amorette’s Patisserie in Disney Springs, and more!

I’m not a fan of the $70 spirit jerseys but I am excited about the new pink ears!!

The World of Disney store in Disney Springs always has really amazing seasonal merchandise.

Disney Springs Events

Adding to the World of Disney at Disney Springs having tons of seasonal merchandise in the store, there are also several shops that have spring promos going on as well as restaurant and bars that have seasonal entrees and drink options.

I mentioned the Wine Slushies at Amorette’s Patisserie, Goofies Candy Co will have spring cake pops, flower cupcakes, decorated candy apples, and much more, and Ghirardelli® Ice Cream & Chocolate Shop will be handing out their free piece of seasonal chocolate.

Also be sure to pick up a Disney Springs Map for more info on the events going on during your stay.

Spring Flowers & Topiaries

In typical Disney fashion, there are extravagant flower arrangements and topiaries all over the Disney World property during the Spring.

Keep your eyes peeled and be sure to take your allergy meds!!
