There’s no need to be too sad that the 2018 Epcot Festival of the Arts just ended on Monday. Because we already have another Festival to look forward to starting NEXT WEEK when the 2018 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival kicks off on Wednesday, February 28th!

Another fun offering at the Festival is the Garden Rocks Concert Series, where popular bands from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s take the stage at the American Gardens Theatre in the American Adventure Pavilion to share some of their greatest hits with the crowds.

These take place three times per evening (5:30pm, 6:45pm, 8:00pm), on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays throughout the Festival.

There are a few ways to get a seat. You could always wait in line, as these concerts are free with your Epcot admission. Or you could book a Garden Rocks Concert Dining Package (find the full list of participating restaurants with pricing here).

And finally, if you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder, you can enjoy a reserved viewing area, simply by picking up a wristband! The distribution location has yet to be announced (for the Disney on Broadway Concert Series during the Festival of the Arts, the location was inside the American Adventure Pavilion). But we do have the scoop on the most important thing: timing!

Wristbands will be distributed Friday through Monday nights throughout the Festival. Distribution will continue while supplies last for the following showtimes:

- Until 4:30 PM for 5:30 PM shows

- Until 5:45 PM for 6:45 PM shows

- Until 7:00 PM for 8:00 PM shows
