For the first time in history at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, there will be holiday decorations and entertainment in every land.  It will all kick off starting on November 8th, 2019.  The Tree of Life will also awaken with a series of wintry tales and holiday music!  Guests definitely won’t want to miss out on all of this holiday cheer.

Epcot:  Candlelight Processional, Holiday Kitchens & More

We started to get a look at some of the celebrity narrators that have been confirmed thus far for Candlelight Processional.  The event runs from November 29th through December 30th.  Guests can also book the Candlelight Processional Dining Package in order to guarantee a seat for one of the showings on that given evening.  There will also be holiday cheer offered at each of the World Showcase pavilions, plus the offerings at the Holiday Kitchens.  The Holiday Kitchens will be located throughout World Showcase and will feature treats and holiday recipes that have been inspired from around the globe.

Guests can also participate in Chip & Dale’s Christmas Tree Spree Scavenger Hunt to scout World Showcase locations looking for the famous chipmunks and their ornaments. Completed maps are returned for a special festive surprise, courtesy of the chipmunk duo.

About Christy Caby

I am a diehard Disney fanatic! I fell in love with all things Disney from an early age and that only increased once I first visited Walt Disney World! It led me to complete a yearlong Disney College Program working at merchandise locations within Disney’s Hollywood Studios (Disney-MGM Studios at that time) and I worked for Disney Parks & Resorts Technology in Project/Program Management. Now I get to write about Disney and help others plan their magical vacations! Disney holds a special place in the hearts of my entire family as my husband proposed there, we honeymooned there, took trips while pregnant with each of my boys and have visited with them many, many times from 8 weeks old through now. One of my favorite memories from each trip is always the look on my kids’ faces the first time they see the castle. I’d love to help you plan your magical vacation!
