Merry and bright, day and night, the 2019 Epcot
International Festival of the Holidays Presented by AdventHealth
shares an abundance of joy and festive holiday traditions with you
and your family now through Dec. 30. The spirit of joy and seasonal lore infuse Epcot, where storytellers from countries around the World Showcase share legends and traditions ranging from a musical tour of the Great White North with the Canadian Holiday Voyageurs to the Hanukkah Storyteller’s tales of diverse music and customs (between Morocco and France pavilions). Daily performances of JOYFUL! A Celebration of the Season, will share uplifting gospel, R&B and holiday songs of Christmas and Kwanzaa at the World Showcase Plaza Stage. And the food! At Holiday Kitchens encircling the World Showcase Promenade, you’ll find Potato Dumpling with Mushroom Sauce from Germany, Slow-Roasted Turkey with Stuffing at American Holiday Table, Canadian Wild Rice and Ham Soup from Yukon Holiday Kitchen – the offerings are vast and suited to many palates. Your sweet tooth will thank you as you embark on the Holiday Cookie Stroll – gingerbread or black and white cookie, anyone? Then catch a performance of the beloved Candlelight Processional each evening with a celebrity narrator, 50-piece orchestra and full choir. For a grand holiday breakfast, lunch or dinner, book a Candlelight Processional Table Service Dining Package at select restaurants, which includes guaranteed seating at a same-day Candlelight performance. And there’s a fun new Future World festival addition this year: Living with the Land: Merry and Bright Nights! When the seasonal sun sets, you can embark on the classic Living with the Land boat cruise through greenhouses thriving with colorful fruits and veggies and decorated with sparkling holiday light displays. There’s so much to see and do, you’ll want to return for another go-round. |
