Disney4me · November 28, 2020

We’ve been eating A LOT of goodies from the Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. We think it’s time to slow down, cool off, and digest with some of the festival’s themed entertainment!

Entertainment has been pared back considerably for the holidays this year. Fan-favorite events like the Candlelight Processional have been canceled due to the global health crisis. Disney has shifted some things around to provide a little festive cheer for guests visiting during the holidays. Today, we got a look at EPCOT’s Holiday Character Cavalcades and live performances!

Live Performances

The America Gardens Theatre was home to the yearly Candlelight Processional. The incredibly popular event was canceled this year and the stage is now being used to host two performance groups. The groups are notorious for singing holiday tunes around EPCOT every year and have returned to spread some Christmas cheer!

We caught performances from the JAMMitors who rocked the stage with their unique and fun percussion act!

We noticed the group had moved over to the Mill Stage in the Canada Pavilion prior to the festival’s start date, but we are so thrilled to see them perform anywhere! This group will be performing at the festival until December 31st.

The crowd-favorite a cappella group, Voices of Liberty, also decked the halls with Christmas carols and songs.

This group knows how to throw down a beautiful holiday tune!

You can find these talented singers at the American Gardens Theatre through December 31st.

Holiday Character Cavalcades

The Magic Kingdom kicked off the season with festive cavalcades and now it’s EPCOT’s time to shine! First up, everybody’s waiting for the man with the bag! Santa Claus came to town and made a grand tour around World Showcase.

He sat comfortably in a horse-drawn carriage while he greeted all the little tykes and grown-ups! (We’re mildly disappointed that his carriage wasn’t pulled by reindeer!) Santa will be making his rounds until December 24th.

Mickey and his friends were dressed in their holiday best too! We spotted the gang happily waving to guests and looking sharp!

Mickey and Minnie’s vehicle was all decked out in garland and ornaments! Not to mention the big bow on the front!

It can’t be Christmas without the Queens of winter! Anna and Elsa made their journeys around the Showcase dressed in their finest threads. Elsa strutted her way around in her gorgeous white gown.

And Anna was in her decked out carriage! Looks like Elsa had something to do with those icy decorations!

The Frozen Holiday Promenade will continue until December 31st.

The live performances and cavalcades are just two ways to celebrate at EPCOT this year. Disney has also started a new scavenger hunt called Olaf’s Holiday Tradition Expedition where guests can explore the park and receive a prize! PLUS, the Cookie Stroll is BACK and allows you to eat all the holiday cookies you can handle.
