In less than a year, the United States will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence—a monumental milestone in our nation’s history. Commemorations are being planned at both the federal and state levels for summer 2026.
In Florida, the Semiquincentennial Commission has been established to lead
the planning and coordination of events across the Sunshine State. This is a unique opportunity to reflect, celebrate, and inspire—right in your own community.
Now is the perfect time to begin planning how your attraction will participate in honoring this historic moment. Whether through themed exhibits, special events, or educational programs, your contribution can help bring this celebration to life for your guests.
Visit the Florida 250 website and the official U.S. Semiquincentennial site for resources, inspiration, and updates on statewide and national initiatives.
Let’s make this celebration one to remember—for Florida, and for the nation.
