Flower and Garden Festival Opening Day

[Stefecatzz]

Is there a ceremony or something special for the first day of the F&G Festival? I'm trying to decide if I will plan to be there that morning (@ 11am when I assume it will begin?) or avoid Epcot that morning & go that evening instead. Do they have a soft opening for Passholders before the official opening day? Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

TIA!

Hoping someone has an answer for this. Now that the holidays are over I'm thinking we might start to hear a little bit more on the F&G?

I hope we'll hear more info soon. F & G is fast approaching and I'm anxious for the 2016 details!

I guess it may be a little early to start thinking about it for some. But this year, it begins on my birthday so I'm looking forward to being there that week & planning my trip now!

I thought maybe someone could tell me if it had an opening ceremony previous years since I haven't found much by searching online about that or if they ever did soft openings for it.

We were there on opening day in 2014 and we didn't see or hear about an opening ceremony. Also, there wasn't a soft opening the day before even though it was the first year they had some food and beverage booths.

What date does it begin?

We are wondering the same thing. Do they ever announce something special if you are there on 3/2 at opening?
