The fall season has only just begun, but Disney is already gearing up for the holidays. We’ve already learned that Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party will return this year, and dates are starting to sell out for that popular event. In addition, the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays will be returning!

Festival of the Holidays 2021

The Festival of the Holidays will include lots of food booths around EPCOT, a Holiday Cookie Stroll, storytellers around World Showcase, and — of course — the fan-favorite Candlelight Processional. If you want to secure your spot at this popular show, one of the easiest ways to do that is by booking a Candlelight Processional dining package. Now, Disney has released the pricing information for these packages!

The Candlelight Processional takes place at the America Gardens Theater in EPCOT’s World Showcase each night of the festival at 5:15PM, 7:00PM, and 8:30PM. A celebrity narrator tells the story of Christmas and a choir sings holiday songs.

You can line up to get a seat at the Processional, or you can reserve a dining package, which secures your spot ahead of time. These dining packages include a holiday meal at an EPCOT restaurant (an appetizer, entrée, and dessert, or a full buffet where applicable, and a non-alcoholic drink) and a reserved spot at a Candlelight Processional performance held on the same day.

• Spice Road Table: $52 per adult; $23 per child (same-day dining packages only)

Candlelight Processional

Regal Eagle Smokehouse and Spice Road Table dining packages are available for same-day dining packages only. So if you forget to make reservations or decide last-minute that you want to use a dining package, these are likely the best choices! You’ll need to visit the restaurant to check for availability on the day that you’d like to book your spot at those 2 restaurants.

Reservations for the rest of the restaurants open on October 6th, 2022. You can book your reservations up to 60 days before your visit, and you’ll want to be quick — availability for these packages can go quickly. Note that Le Cellier is available this year for Candlelight Processional Dining Packages — this is the first year that this restaurant is being offered as part of these packages!
