Disney offers several dining packages for special events. Now, a new restaurant is part of the Christmas festivities!
Candlelight Processional
You’ll love celebrating this holiday season with songs at the “Candlelight Processional,” returning to the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays presented by AdventHealth starting November 25.
This time-honored tradition has been a part of the holiday season at Walt Disney World since its opening in 1971. Guests absolutely love experiencing the celebrity narrators, the Voices of Liberty a cappella ensemble, a 50-piece live orchestra and glorious massed choirs as they present a heartwarming retelling of the traditional Christmas story.
You can read my thoughts on the 2021 Candlelight Processional, plus my thoughts on the Biergarten dining package, in this post.
