The Candlelight Processional routinely draws big crowds at EPCOT. We recommend booking a dining package (we did the Via Napoli lunch package when it was offered) as that’s the only way to guarantee a seat in the America Gardens Theatre.
Otherwise, guests have to line up well in advance of each performance to try and get one of the few remaining seats. This can be a multi-hour wait and, if we’re being honest, isn’t worth your time when the dining packages offer both a meal and a guaranteed seat. Spend the extra money, enjoy a great meal, and take in the holiday magic the Candlelight Processional offers in a reserved seat.
