Hey there, Tracy! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks for stopping by with this rockin’ question.
Walt Disney World recently
released the full schedule for the 2025
Garden Rocks Concert Series—part of the annual EPCOT
International Flower & Garden Festival—and it is loaded with amazing musical talent. There’s something for fans of every genre (dates and times subject to change). Looking for some pop-punk classics? Then check out Simple Plan on April 11 and 12, or Plain White-T’s on May 2, 3, 4, and 5. Or maybe you’re more of a boy band fan. 98 Degrees will be playing on April 27 and 28. It’s a great lineup!
I know that local musical acts often play at the American Gardens Theater midweek, between the scheduled headlining acts. I chatted with a friendly Cast Member and they confirmed that Orlando area musicians are scheduled to play—usually Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays—throughout the festival, but there is no publicly available lineup at this time. Schedule information may be made available at a later date on the My Disney Experience app or
Disney Parks Blog, so I would check back periodically. You can also inquire at Guest Relations on your EPCOT day.
I did some digging into the list of headliners and it looks like 38 Special (playing March 23 and 24), Jon Secada (May 9 and 10), and The Outlaws (May 23 and 24) all call the Sunshine State home. I know it’s not exactly the information you’re looking for, but maybe this will help you find your Florida music fix.
Tracy, I hope you have a fantastic time at Walt Disney World. If you have other questions about the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival or any other part of your trip, you can pop right back to planDisney and ask away!
Keep on rockin’!
