In a strange reversal, Disneyland announced it has canceled plans to offer dining packages to the annual Candlelight Ceremony.
Back in August, Disneyland advertised plans to expand the annual two-night candlelight ceremony to twenty nights of performances. The Disney Parks blog also announced plans to offer dining packages with reserved seating for select performances.
Disney did not give an explanation for the change. They simply said, “Dining packages will not be offered this year.” However, Annual Passport holders will have an opportunity to enter a raffle to win reserved seats. There are no plans to make reserved seating available to the general public.
This sudden change and lack of explanation is sure to upset many, especially those who had planned a vacation around the holiday tradition. It is unfortunate to see this holiday tradition become sullied by another public relations debacle. Here’s hoping they get it right next year.
