I will be at Epcot on Dec 26, 2010. Do you know what time The Illumination Show will begin? I am trying to make dinner reservations and dont want it to conflict. Thank you. Also is there a general time when the parades start at Magic KIngdom?

Hi Suzanne! On December 26th Illuminations will be performed at 9:30pm. I would make my reservations for around 5:00pm just to make sure that you have enough time to dine and find a spot to watch the fireworks. Guests do start finding spots for the show approximately 1 hour before showtime. Celebrate a Dream Come True is the afternoon parade at Magic Kingdom. It is performed daily at 3:00pm. I have linked you with the Magic Kingdom calendar so you can see the times of the evening fireworks. Just click on the day you plan on visiting the Magic Kingdom and the scheduled showtimes for parades and fireworks will pop up. Have a magical vacation!
