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.
