Earlier this year, Disney announced that the Garden Rocks Concert Series would expand to seven days, for a total of 270 concerts during the Flower & Garden Festival, which runs from March 6 through June 3. Now they’ve announced over 15 new artists that will be gracing the American Gardens Theatre stage starting in March.
Over the coming weeks, more artists will be announced.

Translation… Pay for special dining package or you can stand somewhere in the back and try to see a show.
The idea that shows of any kind are not open equally for EVERY Guest is a growing trend and an insult.
It is not a show line-up for park Guests as much as it is a dining package.
That is fine if you do not list it as something included with park admission.
