As someone who has been fortunate enough to have visited Disney World multiple times during the holiday season, I can confidently say that the Candlelight Processional at EPCOT is a must-see event. The combination of talented celebrity narrators, a mass choir, and an orchestra creates an unforgettable experience that truly encapsulates the spirit of Christmas.
The holidays are almost upon us! With October drawing to a close, Disney will soon transform its parks into a festive wonderland.
One of the best places to spend the holidays at Disney World is EPCOT. Not only do you get to experience how different countries celebrate the holidays and New Year, but EPCOT is also known for its Candlelight Processional, an annual show that tells the story of Christmas through stunning performance that features a celebrity narrator, mass choir of Disney cast members and singers from the community, a 50-piece orchestra, and the Vocies of Liberty.
If you’ve never watched it before, I strongly recommend you take the opportunity to catch a performance. The show is running from November 29th until December 30th. Shows are scheduled for 5:00 p.m., 6:45 p.m., and 8:15 p.m. during this period.
This year’s lineup boasts a stellar group of both fresh and familiar faces among our celebrity narrators. Some fan-loved figures such as Neil Patrick Harris, Josh Gad, Brendan Fraser, and Whoopi Goldberg are rejoining us. Additionally, we have Ralph Macchio, the legendary Karate Kid, making his debut, along with Tituss Burgess and Nico Santos.
For specified days throughout the festive period in 2024, various celebrities will take turns narrating the Candlelight Processional. Here’s a look at the schedule for who’ll be narrating on which dates:
