“And I ran … … …” to book tickets for EPCOT Garden Rocks, for a blooming brilliant way to spend the Easter weekend.
How do you plan to spend your Easter holiday weekend? Are you going to Disney World?
If you are, you could cosmic rewind on the Guardians of the Galaxy coaster whilst listening to maybe-the-top-song on the ride’s soundtrack, “I Ran” by Flock of Seagulls, before you indulge in special seasonal bites to eat, and then watch the iconic 80s band live!
Disney World on Wednesday 29 January will put on sale ticket packages for the Garden Rocks Dining Package, part of the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. The dining package is a premium add-on for guests visiting the festival, and the Garden Rocks performances.
Disney has now, via the Disney Parks Blog, confirmed the line-up of music acts lined up for the Garden Rocks concerts – with Flock of Seagulls scheduled for Easter Sunday and the Monday of Easter weekend.
Attending the concert itself is included in park entry on those days, but guest can pay for a dining package to also enjoy specialty food items and secure a preferred view.
Garden Rocks opens on 7th and 8th March with former Boston lead singer Tommy DeCarlo, followed by Air Supply on the 9th and 10th.
The Orchestra, an ensemble of ELO and ‘ELO Part II’ members, perform on the 4th and 5th April, whilst other highlights on the schedule include Sugar Ray, Plain White T’s and The Pointer Sisters – the full lineup and schedule can be found here.
As well as launching the sale of dining packages on Wednesday, Disney is also promoting special offers to guests booking says of up to 5 nights at Disney World during the festival – including $200 off per night over 2 and 3 night room-and-ticket packages, and a 30% discount on room rates over 5 night stays.
