Candlelight Processional Package Questions

[RyMickey]

We just decided that we may be heading down to WDW for a few days in the middle of December and we're definitely planning on seeing the Candlelight Processional as we loved it the last time we were there.

However, I'm doing some preliminary research and I have a couple of questions -- I'm sure this has been answered somewhere on the boards, but I couldn't get the search feature to work at the moment.

- What exactly is included in the package. Allearsnet says "dinner" -- does that mean appetizer, lunch/dinner, and dessert for each member of the party?

- Say, I choose to go to the 8:15 show. Could I still do a lunch package with that show or are lunch packages only offered for the earliest seating of the show? While it says "seating one, two, and three" on allearsnet, I'm not sure whether those seatings coincide with each of the three shows.

Thanks in advance for the help!

The CP dinner packages do inlcude appetizer, entree and dessert.

Due to the popularity of the CP package, I would recommend that you call and make ADR's for the package ASAP.

As I understand it, the dining times are specific to the CP seating. For instance, the lunch package is good for the 5:00 PM show. Likewise, the early seatings are good for the 6:45 CP. I am not sure of how much flexibility they offer in terms of the 6:45 and 8:15 shows and the ADR times. I am sure someone else will have a more definitive answer for you.

Thanks for your help. I realize the popularity of it...if we don't get the package, we'll just wait in the line. Thanks again.

We bought the CP dinner package last year. Dinner was at 5:00 for the 8:15 performance. They give you a reserved seating sticker at the end of your meal, ours specified the date and said 8:15 show. We attended a Friday night performance which was VERY crowded. Even with the reserved seating sticker, we ended up near the back. Be sure to get in line EARLY, at least 30-45 minutes. My parents attended the following Wednesday and the crowd was more moderate. With or without the dinner package, I would AVOID Friday night at Epcot.

We enjoyed the CP and have made reservations for a performance this year.

Enjoy your trip!
