Candlelight Processional

Last year was the first time we experienced the Candlelight Processional and we all really enjoyed it. We did the dining package that included seating. We ate at Garden Grill (I'll BLOG about that some other time - it was great!) and then we made our way past the crowds to our reserved seating. We also had a reserved area for Illuminations viewing.

The processional consists of a large choir, joined by a 50-piece live orchestra and a celebrity narrator. They tell the story of Christmas in words and music, in a very moving performance. Performances are held at the America Gardens Theatre.

This year the dates are:

November 26 - December 30, 2010
Performances take place each evening at 5:00 pm, 6:45 pm and 8:15 pm

•11/29 - 12/01: John O'Hurley
•12/02 - 12/04: Corbin Bernsen

NOTE: The schedule of performers is subject to change without notice

The Candlelight Processional dining packages allow you to enjoy a meal at one of Epcot's restaurants, while guaranteeing you a seat for the show and a special viewing area for IllumiNations. During the peak times this is THE only way to get a seat. Those with Dinner Packages are the first to be seated - those waiting in line will be given the very few seats that remain. If you're in Disney during the holidays I would highly recommend this event.

Dining packages are broken up by tiers, with the lower tier representing the lower-priced dining venues. Below you will find the price and dining venue for each tier.
