Teppan Edo Was the Most Expensive Candlelight Package Last Year at $110. For 2026 It Is $89, One of Only Two Cuts on a List Where 12 Went Up

Last year the priciest way to guarantee a seat at the EPCOT Candlelight Processional was Teppan Edo, at $110 per adult. This year the same package costs $89.

The full 2026 dining package list surfaced Tuesday at WDWMagic and Blog Mickey, whose price tables match line for line. Set it against the 2025 list and the pattern is almost entirely upward: twelve restaurants raised their package price, one held flat, one is back after missing the 2025 list, and exactly two came down. Both of the cuts are in the Japan pavilion.

The two that went down: Teppan Edo drops from $110 to $89 per adult, a cut of $21. Its child price falls further in percentage terms, from $60 to $40. Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya, the other Japan pavilion table on the list, goes from $99 to $85 for adults and $50 to $40 for children.

That reshuffles the top of the board. In 2025, Teppan Edo at $110 was the most expensive package on the list, ahead of Le Cellier Steakhouse at $104. For 2026, Le Cellier rises to $109 and takes the top spot outright, while Teppan Edo lands in a tie for second with Chefs de France at $89.

The twelve that went up. Adult prices, 2025 to 2026:

• Le Cellier Steakhouse: $104 to $109
• Chefs de France: $86 to $89
• Garden Grill Restaurant: $84 to $86 lunch and dinner, $71 to $73 at breakfast
• Tutto Italia Ristorante: $77 to $85
• Coral Reef Restaurant: $78 to $82
• Biergarten Restaurant: $70 to $75
• Via Napoli Ristorante e Pizzeria: $65 to $71
• Nine Dragons Restaurant: $68 to $70
• Rose & Crown Dining Room: $66 to $68
• Spice Road Table: $60 to $63
• La Crêperie de Paris: $57 to $59
• Regal Eagle Smokehouse: $41 to $43

La Hacienda de San Angel is the only package that did not move at all, holding at $86 adult and $37 child for a second year.

Tutto Italia takes the biggest jump. Its $8 increase is the largest rise on the list, and its child price climbs from $29 to $36. Via Napoli, the other Italy pavilion option, is up $6 to $71 with children going from $28 to $33. Most of the other increases are $2 to $5.

A returning name on the list. Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in the Norway pavilion appears on the 2026 list at $87 adult and $59 child. It is on neither outlet's 2025 table, though Disney added it to the Candlelight lineup back in 2022. It also arrives as the second of just two names that draw two Dining Plan table service credits, not one, the other being Le Cellier.

Regal Eagle loses its Dining Plan eligibility. The American Adventure pavilion barbecue counter is still the cheapest way in at $43 adult, and it is still the only same day, walk up option on the list, though Blog Mickey warns that availability "may be low or non-existent" and treats it mostly as a backfill. But both outlets list it for 2026 as not eligible for the Disney Dining Plan. Blog Mickey's 2025 table had it at one quick service meal.

How many restaurants, exactly. WDWMagic's summary says 17 and Blog Mickey's says sixteen table service plus Regal Eagle, but both outlets' actual tables list the same 16 locations, only 15 of which are table service, since Regal Eagle is a counter. Garden Grill carries two separate prices, one for breakfast and one for lunch or dinner, which is what pushes the line count to 17. The verifiable figures are 16 restaurants and 17 price points.

What the package gets you. Breakfast, lunch or dinner at a participating EPCOT restaurant, with an entree and dessert or a buffet where offered, plus one nonalcoholic beverage, or an alcoholic one for guests 21 and older. After the meal the restaurant issues a seating badge for a specific show time, and package holders enter America Gardens Theatre through a separate queue. Seating inside the reserved section is still first come, first served, so arriving early is still worth it.

Spice Road Table works differently from the rest. Instead of an entree and dessert, the Morocco pavilion restaurant serves a pair of small plates plus a tagine and a dessert platter for the table to share.

The practical details. Packages are offered November 27 through December 30, 2026, matching the run of the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. Prices exclude tax and gratuity, the reservation must be held with a credit card guarantee, and valid EPCOT admission is required but not included. Disney's own announcement puts it plainly: "You can book a Candlelight Processional Dining Package beginning October 14, which includes reserved seating and a meal at select EPCOT restaurants."

October 14 is also the date bookings opened in 2025, so the window has not moved even though the show times have. The 2026 performances run at 4:45 p.m., 6:30 p.m. and 8 p.m., each 15 minutes earlier than last year.

What to do with this. If Japan was priced out of your plans last year, it is the one pavilion that got cheaper, and Teppan Edo's $21 drop is the single largest move in either direction on the 2026 list. If you had Tutto Italia or Via Napoli penciled in, budget another $6 to $8 a head. And if you are feeding a family, look closely at the child prices rather than the adult ones, because they moved by very different amounts: Teppan Edo's fell by a third while Tutto Italia's rose by $7.
