I'm excited to be going for the first time this year! I'm assuming that each country will showcase how they celebrate Christmas, right? My DD was asked by her teacher to make a presentation (I'm taking her out of school for this) on how different countries celebrate Christmas when she returns!

Some more than others. Obviously not all of the countries celebrate Christmas (Morocco, China, Japan for instance). At many of the places there are holiday storytellers who help show you how they celebrate. But, even at those countries who do not celebrate Christmas they at least have a plaque that talks about that country's winter holiday, or even the Monkey King in China to talk about their traditions.

My favorite is Pere Noel in France! He's so Christmassy!
Also, if you can do it, I highly recommend getting a Candlelight Processional dinner package! It's amazing and it will really put you in the holiday spirit!

We loved all of it! Make sure you read all of the signs that tell about each countries traditions. It was very interesting. All of the "Santas" are amazing as well. Stop and listen to their stories. Christmas in Epcot is very magical!

Thank you for the info! I'm looking forward to learning all about the traditions of each country! And we will be doing the Candlelight Processional too, and I'm so excited about that!

Yeah, the laugh factor is way up on this one. But the two I never miss is the Liberty Voices doing their Christmas songs, and the World Showcase players doing the Christmas Carol in the UK. I love those shows anyway, but the Christmas spirit really livens them up.

If you have the time, I recommend experiencing what each country has to offer. We found each to be entertaining in their own way, a great time.
