The 2019 Epcot International Festival of Holidays will run from November 29th thru December 30th this year.
During this event Epcot offers the special Candlelight Processional show at the America Gardens Theater in the America Pavilion area of the World Showcase. There are three shows a night–5:00 PM, 6:45 PM and 8:15 PM.
Special celebrity guests are brought in to narrate the traditional Christmas story (along with an orchestra and choir) and it’s an amazing show.
Disney has just confirmed two more narrators for the event– Neil Patrick Harris and Gary Sinise.
Here are the confirmed narrators so far:
- Neil Patrick Harris – 12/2-12/5
- Whoopi Goldberg – 12/6-12/7
- Gary Sinise – 12/13-12/15
- Pat Sajak – 12/16-12/18
- Steven Curtis Chapman – 12/22-12/24
- Edward James Olmos – 12/25-12/26
Seating is limited and the lines are long for this show (especially when Neil Patrick Harris is presenting.) To get guaranteed seating you can book the Candlelight Processional Dining Package. If you eat breakfast, lunch or dinner at select Epcot restaurants you can get tickets for seating. Guests can book reservations 180 days in advance and bookings open on July 3rd.
Annual Passholders and DVC Members can begin booking on July 2nd.
