The holidays are almost upon us! With October drawing to a close, Disney will soon transform its parks into a festive wonderland.

One of the best places to spend the holidays at Disney World is EPCOT. Not only do you get to experience how different countries celebrate the holidays and New Year, but EPCOT is also known for its Candlelight Processional, an annual show that tells the story of Christmas through stunning performance that features a celebrity narrator, mass choir of Disney cast members and singers from the community, a 50-piece orchestra, and the Vocies of Liberty.

If you've never seen the show, I highly suggest you catch one of the shows. It runs from November 29th through December 30th with shows at 5:00 p.m., 6:45 p.m. and 8:15 p.m.

This year's narrators are an impressive bunch of new and returning celebrities. Fan-favorites like Neil Patrick Harris, Josh Gad, Brendan Fraser and Whoopi Goldberg are returning. New to the list is Ralph Macchio — the Karate Kid, himself! — Tituss Burgess and Nico Santos.

Each celebrity narrates for a select few days during the holiday season. Below is the calendar of dates each celebrity will narrate the Candlelight Processional in 2024:

  • 11/29 – 11/30 Josh Gad  
  • 12/1 – 12/2 Nico Santos (NEW) 
  • 12/3-12/5 Chrissy Metz 
  • 12/6 – 12/7 Whoopi Goldberg

As a reminder, Disney does offer Candlelight Processional Dining Packages. This includes reserved seating to guarantee a view of the performance along with a dining package that lets you choose from 15 eateries ranging from character dining at Chip ‘N’ Dale’s Harvest Feast at Garden Grill Restaurant in The Land pavilion to dining at Le Cellier Steakhouse in the Canada pavilion. The package also includes options for breakfast, lunch and dinner with guaranteed seating for one of the three Candlelight Processional shows.
