The EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays starts Nov. 26 and continues through Dec. 30, and Disney has announced a few seasonal entertainment offerings to make sure you and your family will be coming back for more!
First, celebrate the return of “JOYFUL! A Celebration of the Season” on the Showcase Plaza Stage, with musical performances of both Christmas and Kwanzaa music.
In World Showcase, the holiday storytellers, musical acts, and other performers return, from the Canadian Holiday Voyageurs, the Great White North to the Chinese Lion Dance, Italy’s La Befana, France’s Père Noël and more. From Nov. 26 – Dec. 24, Santa Claus will be at The American Adventure.
Last, but certainly not least, is the “Candlelight Processional” at America Gardens Theatre. The Voices of Liberty form a living Christmas tree, joined by a choir of Disney cast members, accompanied by a full orchestra. The best part is hearing the traditional Christmas story told by a celebrity narrator.
