Children can embark on Olaf's Holiday Tradition Expedition scavenger hunt to discover festive customs around the World Showcase Lagoon, while families gather at the America Gardens Theatre for the stirring Candlelight Processional, featuring a celebrity narrator, 50-piece live orchestra, and massed choir recounting the biblical Christmas story. Holiday storytellers in each country pavilion—such as the mischievous Norwegian Julenisse, Pere Noel in France, and La Befana in Italy—bring cultural lore to life with delightful 15-minute performances. EPCOT provides paved walkways, abundant stroller parking, nursing Baby Care Centers, and shaded lagoon-side benches. ## Similar picks in Orlando - [EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays](https://grassyknees.com/orlando/activities/epcot-international-festival-of-the-holidays--listing-08dbccfaeb37a1d424648fa8) — Nov 27 – Dec 30 · EPCOT, Walt Disney World Resort, Lake Buena Vista · All ages · Paid · checked Oct 30.
