Anyone know when bookings start?

This morning, when I called Disney Dining, I was told that reservations would be accepted beginning August 1st.

Here is a post from the Orlando Sentinel, http://www.orlandosentinel.com/the-...lelight-processional-narrators,0,409626.story , which details the current list of narrators.

This link is from 2010. It says that CP starts the day after Thanksgiving and lists a date of 11/26. Thanksgiving this year is on 11/28. I don't beleive that there has been a release of narrators just yet.

There is a 2013 Candlelight Processional Watch Thread under "Disney Dining Reservations". I would post the link but it won't let me. I'm too much of a noob

The link from the sentinel is indeed from 2010. My understanding in the past it was sometime in july that reservations were initiated. I was just wondering if anyone had the real info yet.

We are all waiting anxiously for this information. Last year, the tentative list of narrators came out mid June and booking began June 26th. Here's a great thread about it.

I sincerely apologize for posting a dated link. Initially, I had thought I saw a June 2013 date somewhere on the page.

Thank you for the correction. Had I not known it was dated, we would have been trying to book Jodi Benson or Whoopi Goldberg when reservations open!

No harm,no foul. LOL. Actually after reading that Ray Benson was her husband I was looking forward to seeing her.

LOL... NO clue. But I would keep watching the blogs each day and wouldn't take any CM's word for when bookings open. They've been known to be wrong in the past, unfortunately.

I am anxiously awaiting myself.

People have been able to book some of the restaurants for the CP packages today, online only.

Vicki,
I couldn't make any CP dining reservations,i just tried

Apparently, there was some sort of computer glitch this morning when Disney was testing. I would not be surprised if the reservations made today were cancelled.

I'm sure it will be a bit of a zoo next week when ADRs open, but I think most will get what they want, especially if they can be at least a little flexible.

Thanx Carol,
Here's hoping you're right. we've been there a few times in early Dec but this is the first time we're trying to do this.

I was one of the lucky ones that got in while the window was open. I had just happened to have checked the thread over in the restaurant section...

I read that all reservations that were made will be honored by Disney.

I called yesterday and was told I could make a reservation on July 9th

Congrats to those who snuck in the open window...

But to the rest I am sure you will secure whatever reservation you desire. Keeping my fingers crossed for you that you get the restaurant that you want.
