Epcot’s Flower and Garden Festival – Pixie Hollow Fairy Garden Contest

My favorite time of year for a Walt Disney World vacation is during Epcot’s Flower and garden Festival. The beautiful displays are just so captivating. One new area of the Festival is Pixie Hollow Fairy Garden, with miniature fairy homes and beautiful topiaries of Tinker Bell and friends. The attention to detail was really amazing. This unique garden debuted last year. It was such a huge hit with guests, and this year Disney is expanding it.

In fact, this year you have the chance to design a fairy home for the Flower & Garden Festival, which runs March 3 through May 16. Here is information about this really cool contest.

Draw an original design for a fairy house that you would see on the mainland using lost things and materials from nature. The design must include a description of all of the materials needed to build the house and must be hand-drawn. No computer screenshots allowed.

This contest is in honor of the third movie in the series, Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue, which will be released in November. The director will choose the winner based on these criteria: 50 percent for how well the contest theme is captured, 25 percent for creativity and 25 percent for overall appearance color, detail and artistic quality.

The grand prize includes a vacation for four to Walt Disney World to see the winning fairy home in person. Winner must be able to travel to Orlando between March 30 and April 5 for a five-day, four-night stay and must be a registered user on PixieHollow.com.

You can enter online or print out mail entry forms here, where legal details also are available. The deadline is Feb. 22.
