Disney just released the latest lineup of celebrity narrators for the 2026 Candlelight Processional at EPCOT, with some notable new names.
2026 EPCOT Candlelight Processional Celebrity Narrators
The new narrators announced for the lineup are:
- Benjamin Bratt (December 2-3), who narrated the 2025 Disneyland Candlelight Processional
- Josh Groban (December 13-14), who recently spilled some tea in a Disneyland Teacup Confessions video
Additionally, Auli’i Cravalho, the voice of Moana in the 2016 animated film and its 2024 sequel, has pulled out. She was originally the narrator for the November 27 and 28 performances, which are now listed as “to be announced.” She previously narrated the 2021 Candlelight Processional.
Other new narrators include Lacey Chabert and Jason Kelce. Fan-favorite narrator Neil Patrick Harris is also returning after being absent from last year’s lineup.
2026 EPCOT Candlelight Processional
The Candlelight Processional is performed during the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays from November 27 to December 30, 2026. The times of the Candlelight Processional have been shifted earlier this year, so take note if it’s a part of your holiday park plans.
Seating is first-come, first-served and often fills up fast. To guarantee a seat at one of the three nightly performances, plus enjoy a meal beforehand, guests can book a Candlelight Processional Dining Package beginning October 14 or make a same-day dining reservation at Regal Eagle Smokehouse.
