Canadian Thanksgiving

[I'mfarfaraway]

we will be in WDW for what will be our Thanksgiving. Is there any where that would have anything to celebrate this day? The only place that I can think of is the Canadian pavilion in Epcot.

That's the Columbus day weekend in the States. Unfortunately if you're thinking of a turkey dinner, I think you will find slim pickings. Garden Grill has turkey and stuffing as part of the entrée platter. So does LTT dinner in MK. But it will be closed in Oct. And Planet Hollywood, of all places has a turkey entree. No pumpkin pie though.

Thank you for the reply. I think we will just reserve at a nice sit down place then for that day. What is the tradition for Columbus Day if any?

It's mostly a bank holiday. Some schools are off, and there is no mail delivery. No real traditions, though.

No real traditions, though.

I believe some cities with a strong Catholic/Italian influence sponsor parades or local celebrations.

OP, if there's any specific culinary tradition tied to Canadian Thanksgiving, you might be able to call in advance and ask the chefs if they'll offer it for you...

We went to LTT for Canadian Thanksgiving. It felt (and tasted like) Thanksgiving to us when we were there.

Agree with the others that you'll find no real recognition of Canadian Thanksgiving. The only thing you might notice is in Canada at Epcot and even then it will just be the CM's saying happy thanksgiving. Doubt le Cellier will have anything special that day but you never know.
