News from the City of Orlando


** November 27, 2024
------------------------------------------------------------

We’re ending this week on a few high notes.

One, we had the privilege to celebrate our very own home team, the Orlando Pride (https://www.instagram.com/p/DCz2DLYS-cD/?utm_source=City+News&utm_campaign=ce0cda18ff-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_01_07_03_07_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c482f52094-ce0cda18ff-80648119&mc_cid=ce0cda18ff&mc_eid=UNIQID) , for their 2024 National Women’s Soccer League Championship.

Two, it’s a short week.

Three, we’re ready to eat, shop and be merry.

With gratitude in our hearts, we wish our Orlandoan friends and family a Happy Thanksgiving and joyful holiday season!


** Holiday Reminders
------------------------------------------------------------

Before you enter that food coma, here’s some reminders for the holiday.

Closures and service interruptions:
* Residential recycling pickup for Thursday will be postponed to Saturday, November 30

* Thursday yard waste will be postponed until the next collection date

* City Hall is closed Thursday, November 28 and Friday, November 29

Positive holiday vibes:

* Support your favorite local small businesses for Small Business Saturday, and beyond!


** Santa Says “Shop Small”
------------------------------------------------------------

Tomorrow is for food, family, football and a food coma nap or two, but come Friday, it’s shopping season. For many, Black Friday shopping is a family or friend affair, and Cyber Monday is as convenient as shopping comes. But if you’re looking for something truly unique, Small Business Saturday is the shopping day for you.

If we had to guess, you’re 100% more likely to find one-of-a-kind gifts for your loved ones in a locally owned business, rather than in a brand name store. And as you purchase those gifts from your favorite mom and pop shop, you're not just buying a product – you're investing in our community. Your dollars directly support local jobs, families and unique businesses that make Orlando special.

So, this Small Business Saturday and throughout the holiday season, let's make a conscious effort to shop small and support our local businesses. From unique gifts to delicious dining, you'll find everything you need right here in The City Beautiful.

Not sure where to start? Check out one of the Small Business Saturday events happening in our Main Street districts on Saturday, November 30:
