City Beautiful celebrates 407 Day on April 7 to support local shops, businesses

ORLANDO, Fla. – Visit Orlando and the Orlando Economic Partnership, alongside city and county electives, unveiled a new mural on Friday in honor of 407 Day.

The mural is part of the “Unbelievable Real” brand platform, a first-of-its-kind partnership between the two organizations which was created to speak to leisure travelers, meeting planners, workforce talent and businesses.

“I think it’s amazing how this mural brings together the imagination and innovation (to show) reasons why somebody would come for a family vacation or stay for their dream job,” Orlando Economic Partnership President and CEO Tim Giuliani said.
