Hoping to go to Epcot on Christmas day. Anyone else done it and any advice? Thanks.

Yes we did it Dec 2019. We went to typhoon lagoon in the morning and then went to Epcot in the afternoon for Christmas dinner in the Garden Grill. We then used our 3 fast passes and watched the candlelight processional. I would recommend booking your restaurant with candlelight processional if you want to watch that, as soon as the booking opens.

It didn't feel any busier than any other day that week because of all the space Epcot has. I didn't fancy going to Magic Kingdom with the reports of how busy it gets as that would ruin my Christmas day. So Epcot was the right choice for us.

We did in 2018. It was our third park of the day and we picked up a fast pass for soarin before we left HS. We went in about 3ish, didn�t do much, walked through the world showcase, did Soarin, took some pictures and left. It did not feel particularly crowded.

Here�s our Christmas Day report from Disney - here

Fab. Thank you both. We plan on booking garden grill when available to get the seating. Nice to know could get in later in the day. Maybe not the same rush for entering this year as well if pre booking days 🤞
