Am Orlando holiday tradition, The Candlelight Processional kicks off November 27 with the start of EPCOT International Festival of the Holiday

The Candlelight Processional has long established itself as a beloved tradition of the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays presented by AdventHealth.
In its 55th year at the Walt Disney World Resort, and 32nd year at EPCOT, this performance delights guests with magnificent music and a moving retelling of the Christmas story.
Each year, the America Gardens Theatre ushers in the spirit of the holidays with a 51-piece orchestra, the renowned Voices of Liberty, a celebrity narrator, and a choir of more than 150 Disney cast members and community singers.
Each celebrity narrator brings their unique touch to the story, and we’re thrilled to welcome new and returning narrators to the stage:
Performances are held nightly at 4:45 p.m., 6:30 p.m., and 8:00 p.m. EST at the America Gardens Theatre, giving you plenty of opportunities to experience this inspiring classic.
