Celebration City Closed
We’re a bit late with this one, but we’ll put it out there anyway.
Herschend Family Entertainment closed Celebration City as of October 25th. HFE is looking at several options with the property which they’ve owned and operated since 2003. The site, 110 acres, have the potential to be an aquarium or even reopen as a newly rethemed park. Other family attractions are a possibility as well.
