What IS the Candlelight Procession?

[heart4dis]

I did a search on Candlelight Procession but didn't see a description of it (everyone already knows what it is!). Why do you need a dinner reservation to see it? Is it inside? What time is it? Where does it take place? Is it like a parade or a show (ie does it move from place to place or is it in a certain spot? Inside or out?

OMIGOSH look at my countdown clock!! I really am going to hyperventilate. This is the dream of my lifetime--to take my children to THE WORLD! I can't believe it's really here. I started my countdown in the 400's!

Thank you all for the help you've given. I will post a trip report upon return.

No, you don't need any type of reservation to see it. We just happened upon it Thursday night, while walking around the showcase, got in line and sat down. There are dinner reservations that include better seats, but, IMO, you really don't need to do that, since we had really good seats without one.

It's outside in the amphitheater across from the America pavalion.

I think they have three concerts each evening, not sure on the times though. I can't remember what time it was when we got there, which was about 10 minutes before it started. I'm guessing it was around 7:45 or so, but I really don't remember.

It is a choir singing carols, with a guest narrator telling the story of Christ. The night we went it was Rita Morena, but they change. She would read some, then the choir would sing, she would read, choir, etc.

I'm not sure your kid's ages or likes, but unless they're into church choirs, I really don't think they are going to be interested in this. My DH, who is 45, was squirming in his seat complaining!

According to my kids it's as fun as going to church.
