One of the big draws at EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays is the Candlelight Processional show. This iconic offering is performed at the America Gardens Theatre in the World Showcase every year.
What is the Candlelight Processional at EPCOT?
The Candlelight Processional is an annual show during the Festival of Holidays that showcases a choir of Disney cast members and singers from the community, a 50-piece orchestra, the Voices of Liberty, and a celebrity narrator reading the Christmas story.
The show is performed thrice nightly at 5 PM, 6:45 PM, and 8:15 PM.
