Do you have plans to visit Disney World for the holiday season this year?
It’s a great time to visit the resort, thanks to all the beautiful holiday decorations, the holiday food (ALL the holiday snacks, y’all), Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, and the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays. Well, if you ARE visiting the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, we’ve got an important reminder for you: Candlelight Processional dining packages are now available!
If you’ve never seen the Candlelight Processional, you’re in for a treat. This is a much-loved EPCOT tradition that brings in a live choir with a celebrity narrator to tell the story of Christmas. It’s a must-see experience, but if you want a guaranteed seat, you might want to book a dining package.
Dining packages are available to reserve in advance AS OF NOW. A dining package gets you lunch or dinner at a select EPCOT restaurant and guaranteed seating for one of the three Candlelight Processional events, held at 5:15PM, 7PM, and 8:30PM each evening.
The table service dining package includes your choice of an appetizer, entree, dessert, and non-alcoholic, non-specialty beverage from the chosen restaurant’s menu or one full buffet where applicable. Participating restaurants and prices are as follows:
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall
Adult $71 / Child $45 – Breakfast
Adult $83 / Child $53 – Lunch and Dinner
Biergarten Restaurant
Adult $65 / Child $37
Coral Reef Restaurant
Adult $78 / Child $32
Garden Grill
Adult $63 / Child $40 – Breakfast
Adult $78 / Child $50 – Lunch and Dinner
Le Cellier
Adult $104 / Child $42
Rose & Crown Dining Room
Lunch: Adult $66 / Child $29
Spice Road Table
Adult $55 / Child $24
Includes 2 small plates and one nonalcoholic beverage per person, plus a tagine and dessert platter for your party to share
This year’s celebrity narrators include Brendan Fraser, John Stamos, Neil Patrick Harris, Chrissy Metz, Joey McIntyre, and more! If you want a guaranteed seat for the festivities, you’ll want to book that dining package quickly here.
You can also get a same-day dining package at Regal Eagle Smokehouse for $41 if you’re willing to take your chances. Dining packages are limited, so you’ll need to check at that restaurant as soon as possible on the day you visit EPCOT.

Any chance of an article for how to get a reservation for a fireworks dinner at Disney World? We spent a week at Disney for Marathon weekend in 2022. I spent almost every day 60 days in advance trying to get a dinner reservation at Epcot for the fireworks. We are returning for 2024 Marathon Weekend and will again be trying for Epcot. Looking for tips on how to get one.

I missed out! Does Disney ever add additional reservations for dining packages?
