2025 Garden Rocks Concert Lineup and Dining Packages

As winter comes to a close, EPCOT blooms with the Flower and Garden Festival. This year’s lineup for the Festival’s Garden Rocks Concert Series has been released, along with Dining Package details. This year’s Festival begins on March 5, 2025 and runs until June 2nd. Garden Rocks Dining Packages can be booked beginning on January 29, 2025.

What is the Garden Rocks Concert Series?

The EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival arrives each spring to decorate all of EPCOT with blooming flowers and topiaries. Like all EPCOT Festivals, Flower & Garden features daily performances on the America Gardens Theater stage. The Flower and Garden Festival Concert Series is called Garden Rocks, and features popular artists on the weekends mixed with local acts during the week.

Garden Rocks concerts are free, but the wait for standby seating can take time; for popular acts the line often begins forming over an hour in advance. To guarantee a seat, you can book a Garden Rocks Dining Package at an EPCOT restaurant. If you’re on the Disney Dining Plan, there’s no extra cost above your DDP credit(s) for the restaurant. When paying cash, the package is usually $10-$20 more than a similar meal at the same restaurant. If you’re trying for standby seating and you don’t get in, you can still enjoy the music from nearby areas outside the theater.

Garden Rocks concerts have three performances a day, at 5:30 pm, 6:45 pm, and 8:00 pm at the America Gardens Theater. Valid admission for EPCOT is needed to attend a showing, as well as a park reservation if your ticket requires one. This year’s lineup is below.

Garden Rocks Dining Package Details

There are 15 restaurants at EPCOT offering Garden Rocks Dining Packages. All but one of them are Table Service locations that accept advance reservations. All packages, whether reserved in advance or Same-Day packages, include a guaranteed seat to the Garden Rocks concert held on the same day. You’ll be asked to select the time of the reserved showing when making your Dining Package reservation. When your meal is complete, you’ll receive a badge with the time and date of your reserved seating.

Prices do not include admission to EPCOT, and a separate theme park reservation is needed if your ticket requires it. Compared to the cost of the meal alone, the extra cost to book the dining package is typically about $20 per adult and $10 per child.

If you are on the Disney Dining Plan, you can use your credits to pay for the Garden Rocks Dining Package. Your confirmation email will include the number of credits needed. In 2025, this is usually the same number of credits as a non-package meal at the same restaurant.

Table Service Garden Rocks Dining Packages

These packages can be booked online as of January 29, 2025. Prices and locations are shown below. Note that dining packages are not available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays.

Adult prices apply to those aged 10 years and up; listed prices do not include tax and gratuities. Except at Spice Road Table, the package price includes an entree and dessert, or one full buffet/family-style meal, as well as a beverage, which may be an alcoholic beverage if guests are 21 or older. At Spice Road Table, the package includes 2 small plates and one beverage per person, which may be an alcoholic beverage if guests are 21 or older, plus a tagine and dessert platter for your party to share.

Same-Day Garden Rocks Dining Packages

Only one location is offering a same-day dining package this year: Regal Eagle Smokehouse: Craft Drafts & Barbecue in the American Adventure Pavilion. 2025 pricing is $36 (not including tax) for adults and $21 for children. Visit the restaurant on the day of the show you want to attend to ask about availability, which is not guaranteed.
