Christmas Processional at EPCOT for 2012

When do they release the dates and how does it work with your dining package? Thanks

I can't answer both of your questions, but I'll tell you what I recall...

I think we were able to book our date in August, if I recall. The restaurants/prices/ dates were probably released earlier in the summer??? When the day arrived to book, we were only allowed to book by phone. I held for like 45 minutes before my call was finally answered. Later on in the fall, if became possible to book/change CP packages online. That will make it much easier I believe.

It takes 2 DDP credits for the CP package. We decided it wasn't good use of credits, so we opted to pay cash and booked a lesser expensive lunch at Via Napoli and attended the 5:00 CP. It was wonderful and worth the $200 OOP. (To contrast, each of our meals that we used DDP for was $150 ish...so we felt we did better by paying cash.)

It was so awesome. We had Marlee Matlin as our "reader." I would definitely recommend her. Loved the whole experience.

I'm jealous you get to go this year! Enjoy!

Way too soon - they haven't been coming out for booking until August.

All the packages have been 2 TS dining credits. That's the case no matter which restaurant you choose, or whether the meal you select is lunch or dinner. Le Cellier was only available for lunch last year. If you're choosing a less expensive restaurant it might actually not be worth it to spend 2 credits, especially since they're all typically one-credit restaurants.
