Celebration

Celebration is a planned residential development in Osceola County, Florida, built around traditional architectural styles with tree-lined streets and interconnected neighborhoods. Walking paths run throughout the site, linking residential areas with shops, offices, and public spaces in a cohesive townscape.

The Walt Disney Company launched this residential project in 1994 on former swampland in central Florida. Development followed early 20th-century urban planning principles and aimed to offer an alternative to typical suburban layouts.

The town center serves as a gathering spot where locals take part in seasonal festivals, art shows, concerts, and shared events throughout the year. These activities foster neighborly connections and create a lively focal point for everyday social life.

Visitors can explore public areas on foot, as most facilities are within easy reach of the center. Free parking is available near the town core, and most paths are level and easy to navigate.

The original designs came from several well-known architects, including planners of classic American towns. A dedicated radio station broadcasts local news and event updates exclusively for residents and visitors to the development.
