We saw it last year and loved it. I do recommend the pkg because you're gauranteed a seat. We did the pkg with Le Cellier.

Why is the Italian place so expensive with the package?

Just an FYI, CP seatings were released on Monday. So you may want to make up your mind quickly. We are dining at Le Cellier. I would seriously doubt there are any seatings still open for there though. I'd suggest either GG or Biergarten. But then I'm very picky about my Italian food. While CR has great atmosphere, I wasn't real fond of the entrees there. The desserts are wonderful. I've never eaten at Le Chefs so I don't have a comment there for you.

Beware of Biergarten...we had to do them last year for CP, and while the food was wonderful I was quite turned off by the little darling who was literally taking a taste of each item on the buffet WITH THE SERVING SPOON!!! UGH!! I'm not real big on WDW buffets because too many people don't watch what their kids are doing.

We have done the Candlelight Processional for about 10 years now and we just love it. It is the perfect show to put you in the holiday spirit. We have dined at just about every restaurant in the showcase for the dinner package. We dined at Rose & Crown Pub last year and it was fantastic as always. I would suggest you look at the menus and go from there.

Would anyone recommend seeing this show ?

Definitely!

We did the CP package last year on Christmas Eve. We had dinner @the Biergarten which we always enjoy! Our CP narrator was Gary Sinese.

The Candlelight Processional is a MUST for me at least once a trip (have 2 planned for this trip with 2 different narrators). It's so beautiful. I would recommend going to either a 6:45pm or 8:15pm performance, sit under the overhang if there is even the slightest chance of rain, and definitely do a dinner package. This allows you to enter the show before the standby line. I would recommend dining at either Le Cellier or the Rose & Crown. Both are must dines for me.

I would definitely recommend the Candlelight Processional! It gets us in the Holiday Spirits! This will be our third year in a row eating at Tutto Italia in Italy. We are not extremely picky but love Italian food and have enjoyed our meal here every year.

Candlelight is a must as it is a spectacular Christmas event. 50 piece orchestra, 400 member choir and a guest narrator. The narrator reads the Christmas story from the Gospel according to look and the music is amazing. I often go twice during a week long stay. I just booked my package at Tutto Italia today as my computer is on the fritz and I just found out they started accepting ressies last week. I think you'll have a hard time booking Le Cellier but if you were planning on Tutto or Chefs I don't think you'll have trouble getting a package there. Good Luck.

My experience of the Candlelight Processional is mostly from a performance perspective, but I always talked my family into doing the package at Akershus (which just shows my age since they no longer participate) or Biergarten afterwards when I could join them. We selected those two locations primarily because of our family's heritage is Scandinavian and German and I would understand if you'd prefer something a little more middle of the road like Le Cellier or even Coral Reef. As for the show itself... it is stunning. I get goosebumps just thinking about it and I bought the album so I could still have the experience even though I moved away. Enjoy the show!

We went for the first time last year with the CP package at Le Cellier. The food was fantastic and the show was excellent. We were there for Neil Patrick Harris and he was just awesome. I grew up with him as Doogie, but absolutely fell in love with him after CP. Candlelight Processional was actually the first time I actually felt the Christmas spirit during our holiday trip. (Being from New England, it's hard to think Christmas when you're wearing shorts and getting sunburned.)

We did the Candlelight Processional this past December. It was our final night at Disney after a 10 night stay.We did the package with the Biergarten as our choice. The food and entertainment was great at the restaurant and the CP was fabulous. It was the exclamation point of our trip. I will do it everytime I go.

I love the way you said that! I am going to start saying that too. Hope you don't mind

Is this a "must see" show for kids, one boy one girl, ages 4 & 8 when we travel? Thanks!
