My2QTs · 11-25-2009, 08:28 AM

I thougth my kids might like this and i printed off some info about christmas traditions around the world for them to read in the car on the 9 hour drive south. So when we get there, is there a specific time and place to start or does it go on all day?

Epcot's World Showcase (where these events take place) opens at 11AM.
The events and times are listed in the Times Guide and on the site below-

This is a great site to keep BOOKMARKED for future reference.

The following site posts the stage shows, in-park and other on-property shows and their times for the CURRENT week.
(It is updated every weekend.)
The times may be "similar" for other dates as well.

Steve Soares' TIMES GUIDE Site

At the top of the page,
click on the colored links for the various parks
to open their listings and view their show times.

Be sure to check back to the site as the actual dates of your trip get closer.

Yeah, thanks. I have that site bookmarked, but I didn't notice any specific times or strategies for the storytellers. It says where they are, but I didn't know if there was a specific time for it or if it just went on over and over again all day.

Basically, over and over again, with breaks between the individual shows.

There may be more specific times listed starting next week on the Steve Soares site.

Make sure to pick up a special holiday booklet when you enter Epcot. This should show all the holiday happenings. Also pick up the single page flyer with all the times. This should list all the times of the storytellers. We have done this in the past and depending on how they are scheduled, you can sometimes start in one country and then work your way around the countries. Each storyteller is on for about 15 minutes then they do photos and sign autographs. It is alot of fun.

The storytellers go on all afternoon and evening. I've done an Excel spreadsheet in prior years that list the show times for the storytellers by time, not by country. I had hoped to get some sort of schedule so I could see them all in an afternoon. What I found is that it's almost impossible to see them in any sense of orderly fashion. You can't start in Mexico, see the storyteller then move on to Norway to see the next one, then to China, etc. What we do instead is just walk around the Showcase and see as many as we can and then repeat.

I agree - it would be nice if they were timed a little better so you could just go on from one to the next.

You may want to take a look at Steve's site again as you plan.It DOES list the specific times for each storyteller.
