EPCOT is the park that changes the most multiple times each year if we really think about it.

There are four EPCOT festivals that typically happen each year, and the last one of the year is about to begin in a few days. EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays is many guests’ favorite of the year thanks to all the decorations and holly jolly festivities, and it’s starting in just ONE day!
If you’ve never been to EPCOT during Festival of the Holidays, it’s more than just holiday decorations and food booths (called holiday kitchens). There are some pretty spectacular entertainment offerings that are highly sought after each year, and these holiday kitchens are often VERY popular.

Easily one of the most crowded parts of each Festival of the Holidays event each year is the Candlelight Processional that happens each night. While this offering attracts many guests each night, the nights with celebrity narrators will REALLY draw crowds. If you find yourself wanting to attend on one of those nights, we recommend getting a dining package to ensure your seating will be reserved.

There are also fantastic holiday storytellers that will be located throughout World Showcase. These storytellers are from the countries represented and perform a mini show to tell the story of how the holidays are celebrated in their part of the world. These don’t have any seating, so they don’t fill up, but you’ll definitely want to stop by during their showtimes to experience their talent!

There are 18 food booths to experience at Festival of the Holidays this year, and that’s not counting the offerings at permanent quick service locations like Connections Eatery and Joffrey’s locations, so if you see people walking around with food that’s unfamiliar but looks delicious, you’ll want to pick up a festival guidebook (totally free) to help you find the items that appeal the most to you.

We’ll also be in EPCOT on Day 1 of the festival to tell you about each and every offering at Festival of the Holidays, so be sure to stay tuned to AllEars!
