PHOTOS: Crews Set Stage for Candlelight Processional
The triumphant return of the Candlelight Processional is just over a week away, and we spotted crews at Epcot preparing the stage for opening night!

The Eat to the Beat Concert Series closed its run on November 15th, and Epcot crews wasted no time after closing! They began loading in lighting rigs and jig lifts for Candlelight the very next day, and we were on the scene last night as work began on the stage.
Rows of hung gobo lights can be seen lining the back of the stage, ready to be hung by a crew member working the lift.

More gobos were waiting to be hung at the foot of the stage (pictured bottom left).
The tech crew had already made some significant lighting progress by park close. If you look to the fly space (aka top of the stage), you can see that many rows of both motorized and stationary lights have already been hung for Candlelight’s seasonal run.
Candlelight Processional is, without question, the most elaborately stunning show that graces the America Gardens Theatre each year, and we can’t wait to see the finished product on opening night!
