The Candlelight Processional takes place two days in December (two shows per night) and features a huge choir made up of CM's and choirs from local schools and churches. The walk up a very dark Main Street carrying lighted candles and gather on the Train Station. They are accompanied by a live orchestra and sing traditional Christmas songs. A celebrity narrator reads the Christmas story from the Bible. The past two years Marie Osmond has been the narrator. Past celebrity narrators include Gregory Peck, Jimmy Stewart, Cary Grant and James Earl Jones. Words can't even describe how emotional and powerful it is.
I went for the first time last year and it was awesome. It's by far one of the best experiences I've ever had in Disneyland. It's one of the best shows Disneyland has ever put on. It's also one of the parks oldest traditions. It has been going on every Christmas since 1959.
I would love to see a video of last year's show. I have looked all over and have never found a video form any past show.
