Disney Unscripted – Flower & Garden Festival

Disney Unscripted is a YouTube series by Disney Parks showcasing some of the backstage work that goes into Disney’s biggest projects like transforming Jungle Cruise into Jingle Cruise, the christening of the Disney Destiny, and decorating Cars Land for the holidays.
In this video, the horticulture team has to prepare and protect the festival plants through record-breaking Florida freezes, plus move them into the park during the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend.

Watch as cast members put finishing touches on topiaries, navigate last-minute challenges at the U.K. pavilion, release butterflies in Butterfly Landing, and install a dragon topiary directly in the center of the China pavilion pond.
Check out our full guide to the 2026 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival.
