EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays will be returning once again this year as Holiday Kitchens, the famous Cookie Stroll, performances from the Voices of Liberty, and more arrive in time for Christmas!

While the event will take place from November 26th through December 30th, Disney World has already starting preparing ahead of time.
Disney Auditions has shared that they are hiring local Florida actors to join EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays! Disney World is currently looking for Holiday Storytellers, a Female Identifying Role in the Italy Pavilion’s La Befana, and a Male Identifying Musical Role in the Norway Pavilion’s Barn Santa.

In case you need a memory refresher, the Storytellers are a group of popular figures who share the tales of each World Showcase Pavilion’s holiday traditions. While they were missing from last year’s modified event, we’ve got high hopes that we could be seeing MORE entertainment return to the Festival of the Holidays than expected! And, the Holiday Storytellers are definitely at the top of our lists for must-visit experiences during the event!

Online submissions can be submitted through September 20th for a seasonal contract, running from November to December. If you’re interesting in auditioning, you can find out more details about submission requirements on the Disney Auditions website! And, you can stay tuned with AllEars for even more Disney entertainment and news coming soon!
