News: 2014 Disney World Candlelight Processional Narrators
Editor’s Note: Sharon Stone has been removed from the 2014 line-up.
One of the highlights of Disney World’s holiday season is Epcot’s Candlelight Processional!
Although subject to change, the list of narrators is trickling in. And so far, we have two new celebrities — Sharon Stone and Ana Gasteyer — this year!
Amy Grant narrating 2013 Candlelight Processional
Disney World’s Candlelight Processional
The Candlelight Processional will be performed three times each night from November 28 – December 30, 2014.
The popular show includes the telling of the Christmas story by a celebrity narrator who is accompanied by a 50-piece orchestra, and a choir composed of Disney cast members and guest choirs from around the country.
Seating for the Candlelight Processional is first-come, first-served, and you do need to get in line at least an hour in advance to get a seat. However, if you book a Candlelight Processional Dining Package, you have guaranteed seating as well as guaranteed VIP viewing of Epcot’s fireworks spectacular, IllumiNations, Reflections of Earth, after the show! All this in addition to a lunch or dinner meal at a select Epcot restaurant.

Tip from the DFB Guide: How to Outsmart the Heat and Crowds at Disney World This Summer
We’re coming into the very hot, very crowded summer months at Walt Disney World. And that gives me a chance to share with you one of my favorite tips from the DFB Guide to Walt Disney World Dining!
So, dining in the theme parks is awesome and convenient, since you’re probably already there. BUT, it can also be a hassle…because you’ll get hungry for lunch, well, just about same time that everyone else does!
So one of my favorite tips for dealing with crowds during lunch at Disney Parks? Escape the Parks for lunch at a nearby resort.
The food is as good (and sometimes it’s better) than what you’ll find in the Parks. And with all of that wonderful air conditioning comes another pleasant surprise. Since most guests are busy running to and fro to attractions, you’ll often find little to no wait at Resort restaurants.
When I’m at Magic Kingdom, I love to hop a boat and head for a late breakfast at Trail’s End Restaurant, where the buffet is packed with comfort food until noon every day. Or plan to attend the brunch buffet, which happens on select days and is open until 2PM.
Located at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground, getting there by boat is actually a smart move, since the restaurant is located all the way at the back of the resort.
Breakfast and brunch at Trail’sEnd includes Mickey Waffles!
ESPN Club is a short walk from both Epcot or Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and it’s a great place to catch up with what’s going on in the world of sports while you cool down!
Sanaa at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge has amazing food, and it’s an easy commute from Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

Tip from the DFB Guide to Magic Kingdom Snacks: DIY Chili Cheese Fries!
Part of being in the know about all the fantastic snacks around Walt Disney World is knowing just how to maximize the snacks you do get. And one TIP that I absolutely love is to take advantage of condiment bars at counter service locations around the resort.
Many of the counter service locations in Magic Kingdom offer condiment stations that are a cut above your usual ketchup and mustard stops!
Toppings at Casey’s Corner
With a bevy of freshly cut vegetables, sauces, pickles, and even plastic cheese (!!!!!!), you can garnish food to your heart’s content!
Plastic Cheese Dispenser at Casey’s Corner
One of my favorite hearty snacks are the Chili Cheese Fries that you can get at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe in Frontierland and Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe in Tomorrowland. Filling and delicious, they cross over the divide from snack into meal effortlessly!
Chili Cheese Fries from Cosmic Ray’s
But say you’re looking forward to a serving of this glorious snack — and your group all votes for a stop at Casey’s Corner on Main Street USA. Well, you could grumpily stalk off from your group and go your own way…but we have a better idea!
Here’s a TIP from the DFB Guide to Magic Kingdom Snacks e-Book that will remedy your woes. Although Casey’s doesn’t always have [Read more…]
