In exciting news last week, Disney has shared that the popular “Candlelight Processional” will be back this year, Nov. 26 – Dec. 30, as part of the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays.
“Candlelight Processional” is a long-standing Disney Parks tradition, dating back to 1958 at Disneyland park. Walt Disney World guests have enjoyed the annual “Candlelight Processional” since 1971, initially at Magic Kingdom Park and since 1994 at EPCOT. After being greatly missed during last year’s holiday season, this magnificent production will once again grace the America Gardens Theatre with a live orchestra, cast choir, and celebrity narrator retelling the traditional Christmas story in spectacular and heartwarming fashion.
Since all these performers – including cast members, musicians, singers, and narrators – will be required to be fully vaccinated, this year things will be a bit different as they will not be hosting choirs from different community groups and schools. Instead, to maintain the grandeur of the performance, Walt Disney World will be expanding their cast member choir to fill the stage with voices.
We don’t yet know the schedule of celebrity narrators and details about “Candlelight Processional” Dining Packages, but as soon as we do, we will let you know!
