PHOTOS & VIDEO: See Brendan Fraser’s Debut at EPCOT’s Candlelight Processional
Can you really say you visited Disney World during the holidays if you didn’t also see the Candlelight Processional?
Every year, EPCOT is home to the Candlelight Processional, a show featuring a 50-piece orchestra, a choir, and a celebrity narrator to tell the story of Christmas. This show takes place during the Festival of the Holidays, and tonight we made our way over to the show to catch a new narrator!
Brendan Fraser Hosting Candlelight Processional
From December 12th to 14th, Brendan Fraser is a new celebrity narrator for the Candlelight Processional!
The show takes place at the America Gardens Theatre in the American Adventure Pavilion of EPCOT, with showtimes at 5:15PM, 7PM, and 8:30PM.
We arrived around 3:45PM for the 5:15PM show, and the line had already stretched from the American Adventure Pavilion all the way into the Germany Pavilion. A few guests who were behind about 30 people in line told us that they got in line around 12:45PM.

This isn’t super surprising considering Brendan Fraser is a new narrator and a beloved Academy Award-winning actor, but if you don’t want to wait in line, you can purchase a dining package for a guaranteed seat.
The line slowly made its way into the America Gardens Theatre for the 5:15PM show, and as you can see, it was packed.
Here’s a look at the choir and orchestra.
And here’s Brendan Fraser narrating!
He did a great job and the crowd was really excited to see him.
