Olivia Benson, Olaf, SHANG-CHI(!!!!), and Queen Ramonda?! What a lineup! You can catch the Candlelight Processional when the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays begins on November 25th, 2022.

If you want to secure your spot at the show, you can do so by booking a Candlelight Processional Dining Package! These will go on sale starting October 6th, 2022.
Each package includes an appetizer, entree, and dessert, or (if applicable) 1 full buffet, plus a non-alcoholic beverage. And, of course, the package comes with 1 guaranteed seat per person for a Candlelight Processional performance that is held on that day.

Here’s a full look at the restaurants that will be participating in the dining packages and the pricing information for each. These prices exclude tax and gratuity.
Pricing ranges from $40 per adult to $100 per adult, and $23 to $46 for kids. Some of these are available to reserve through advance dining reservations, but some (like Regal Eagle Smokehouse and Spice Road Table) are ONLY available through same-day availability.

Those same-day dining packages allow you to grab a meal and dining package more last-minute. You’ll want to stop by these spots during a Festival day and see what they have available. Availability can run out or there may not be spots available on peak days, so keep that in mind.
