Today we have gotten a lot of news about the upcoming Taste of EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival outdoor kitchen menu items, and now we have a look at the live entertainment that will be coming this year. The event will run from March 3 – July 5, 2021.
Unlike previous years where EPCOT hosted the Garden Rocks series, this year will feature local talent.
Some of the EPCOT traditional acts will be performing in the World Showcase:
Jammin’ Gardeners (Canada Mill Stage)
Tap your feet to the syncopated sounds of the funkiest gardeners around.
Voices of Liberty (America Gardens Theatre)
Get swept away by inspiring vocal performances celebrating America’s spirit and beauty.
Mariachi Cobre (America Gardens Theatre)
Enjoy an exuberant performance of world-famous, traditional folk music.
Pianist (World Showplace)
Relax and enjoy a selection of songs of the season.
There will also be local talent at the City Beautiful Bandstand!
I love this idea! I think it’s a fantastic way to support local talent!
