Candlelight Processional????

[Debs5angels]

If I want to make PS for the Candlelight Processional on November 28th, can anyone tell me when I could call. Is it a certain amount of days before like 30 or 90 or is it only during a certain time that they sell them like the tickets for MVMCP?

Also any advice on what time I should make them if I want to see the 6:45 show? I would like to go to dinner after the show not before.

Thanks for anyone's help!!!

I checked on this as well since we want the CP package on Christmas eve and I know we'll have to be on top of things to get that night. Last year the package went on sale in late August and you could book any date then. I think the show is 40 minutes and then you have to account for time to exit with the masses of people and get to your restaurant so probably 8pm is a safe bet for the 6:45 show. We're planning the 8:15 show and dinner at 5:15. My kids don't like eating late.

We ate too early last year and felt rushed. My DD's weren't hungry and they left almost everything on thier plates. I didn't realize you could do the show then eat. I'd do that next time to avoid that rushed feeling.

That's exactly what I did last year-ate afterwards, and it worked out fine. Went to the 6:45 show and had plenty of time to get over to R&C to check in for 8:00 PS.

As noted above, last year the CP packages went on sale the end of August for all CP shows.
We ate at Le Cellier at 4:20, then did the 6:45 show on Christmas Eve. It was nice having dinner in a not so crowded restaurant, then taking our time to get to the show. It worked out great for us.
And no matter what...do NOT miss this show! Its wonderful.

Any ideas on current (or '03) prices for the adult CP package? Thanks!

I have the same plans.

I hope it's not to hard to book a package for Christmas Eve. I have to attend a wedding out of town the end of August. With my luck that will be when the CP goes on sale.

Has anyone ever done Tappenyaki as part of the CP?

Done the Teppanyaki as part of our CP Package and we loved it.This year we are planning on going to LeCellier as part of our CP Package.Late August is when we booked and I think cost was for DW and I was just a little under $90.00.

We were in WDW the last week of Aug and before we left rumor had it they would open up that week. WE wanted Christmas Eve too. On Tuesday while strolling through Epcot we stopped in at Le Cellier and asked if the CP packages had gone on sale yet. The hostess went to "check" and we were told we could book it in October. OK! Later we went back to the hotel and called the regular number to book it. Lo and behold we were able to book it then. So, my point is I know we didnt do it right away, and I think maybe even a day or so after they went on sale. We were still able to get the time we wanted(or close to it) for Christmas Eve. So if it looks like they may go on sale while you are away, you might want to check every couple of days to see if its available.

I THINK that last year there were 3 different price "levels", $28,$33, and $38 (not sure of those prices). The cheapest had a choice of 3 resturaunts-Garden Grill, Biergarten, or ? (don't remember). The middle tier, I'm pretty sure, included Rose and Crown and Marakhesh (there were a total of about 5 returaunt choices). Most expensive included, I think, Le Cellier and Chefs de France (along with a few others). Hopefully, someone else has a better memory than I. At R&C at least, and most others, that price got you an appetizer, entree, dessert, and non-alcoholic beverage. You pretty much had your choice of the menu items-not a special "CP Package" meal. It seemed to me that the meal itself was pretty much worth getting the package.

Lower tier price also included Akershus (Norway)

DIS has all the info from last year. Tyr this link:

Hope that helps...I'm thinking Coral Reef for early Dec. Not sure which show or what time for dinner, yet.....Can't wait!

Thank you, everyone! I was going to make a PS for R&C anyway, so I think we will go ahead and book the pkg. when it becomes available. Am I correct that this would probably be in August sometime? Thanks again!

IIRC, that is when the packages were first available for last year.

If you keep an eye on the DIS boards, you will be among the first to know when they become available.

Best wishes -
