Every year, from the end of November till the end of December,Epcot plays host to Epcot’s Candlelight Processional. Held in the America Garden Theater located in between the Japan and Italy pavilions, this is a wonderful retelling of the biblical tale of Christ’s birth.
This event features a full orchestra and choir as well as a celebrity narrator. This is one of the most popular events during the holiday season. The event is included with price of admission into Epcot but seats for the 3 shows per day fill up quickly with people waiting in the standby line for hours to secure their seat. The other very popular option is to purchase a Candlelight Processional Dining Package. This includes either lunch or dinner in some of Epcot’s most popular restaurants as well as a guaranteed seat in the theatre for the show. To me this is the best option. You are probably eating at the park anyway AND you don’t have to waste time waiting in line.
The list of Celebrity Narrators is fantastic!
