The holidays are coming up fast in Disneyland and Disney World.
We’ve already been to the holiday after hours events in both theme parks (Merriest Nites in Disneyland and Very Merriest After Hours in Disney World), and Festival of Holidays has arrived in Disney California Adventure. Now it’s been confirmed that one of the most popular holiday events is RETURNING to Disneyland.
Earlier this year, we learned about some permits being filed by Disney for “Candlelight Procession Installation,” so we had a pretty good hunch that the event would return.
Disney has now confirmed that the Candlelight Processional will return to Disneyland for two nights only. This year, it will be on December 4th and 5th.
Showtimes will be at 5:30PM and 7:45PM each night. The event is usually by invitation only, but guests without tickets can also watch from designated areas on Main Street, U.S.A..
The Candlelight Processional has returned to EPCOT in Disney World as well, and it will be held on select nights from November 26th to December 30th. Disney has already announced some of the celebrity narrators for the event in Disney World.
