The Preliminary List of Garden Rocks Artists!

When Walt Disney World shut down in 2020 because of covid-19, the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival had just started. A modified version ran when things opened again four months later, and things were still scaled back somewhat in 2021, including the entertainment.

In 2022, one of the most important elements of the Flower & Garden Festival will return, the Garden Rocks Concert Series! The preliminary list of artists has been released. There are still a few open dates, so we will share more information when we know who else will perform.

Joey McElroy shared the details with Disney Parks Blog:

Get your air guitars ready, because the popular Garden Rocks Concert Series returns to the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival this March! New this year, internationally recognized artists will bring the groove to the America Gardens Theater stage Friday-Monday, while local Orlando bands step into the spotlight Tuesday-Thursday.

I grew up in Western Massachusetts. When I was nine my family went to Disneyland and I was hooked. I grew up, attended New England College in Henniker, NH, and eventually moved to Virginia. I worked as a disc jockey, married, and became a full time mom when our daughter was born. Fast forward several years. In 2010, we moved to Central Florida and my Disney obsession grew. I now work as a freelance writer and spend my spare time in the Parks. Under the name Paula Brown, I penned the novels 'Dream Wanderers' and 'The Coffee Cruiser'. I also am a co-author of 'Dining at Walt Disney World: The Definitive Guide'. I'm obsessed with Star Wars, so this is a good time to live in Central Florida.
