It’s almost time to book one of Disney World’s most popular offerings of the year!

EPCOT Candlelight Processional

The EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays returns on November 28th, and along with it, we’re getting the return of the iconic Candlelight Processional. This show is one of the most popular offerings of the festival, and if you want to get reserved seating for a performance, then you should know that dining packages open soon!

Candlelight Processional Dining Packages are offered at several restaurants around EPCOT and allow you to have a delicious meal and also snag reserved seating to one of the evening’s performances. These packages are particularly helpful to make sure you can get into the show on the nights when more popular celebrity narrators are performing.

2022 EPCOT Candlelight Processional

Reservations for dining packages open on October 14th. You can make reservations for your trip as long as you’re within 60 days of the start of your vacation, so some people who have trips planned for the second half of December will have to wait until their booking window opens.

You can also sometimes score same-day dining packages at Regal Eagle Smokehouse if you don’t want to make a reservation or can’t get one before your trip. This package is $41 per adult, $21 per child, or one quick-service dining credit.

Regal Eagle Candlelight Processional Dining Package

This year has quite the lineup of celebrity narrators, so we have a feeling the shows will be just as popular as in the past. Those with a dining package will be given a specific time to line up at the America Gardens Theatre to see the show, and that group will be let in with higher priority than the standby queue. This year’s narrators are:

• Nov. 28th-29th – Constance Wu (NEW)
• Nov. 30th-Dec. 2nd – Jordan Fisher
• Dec. 3rd-4th – Jennifer Garner (NEW)
• Dec. 5th-6th – Ashley Eckstein
