Here at The Celeste Hotel, we love hosting meetings, conferences, weddings, and other special events at our East Orlando location. The combination of our Tribute Portfolio luxury layout, our convenient location, our unique space-themed decor, and our first-rate event-planning and logistics services—well, it’s a hard one to beat, needless to say.

We’re thrilled this month to be hosting the January meeting of the National Association for Catering & Events (NACE) Orlando Chapter at our hotel. It’s an honor to serve as venue for this local presence of the foremost association for event professionals and caterers in the world.

The January Meeting of NACE Orlando Chapter at The Celeste

The NACE Orlando meeting at The Celeste takes place Tuesday, January 26 from 5:30 to 8:30 PM.

The gathering’s featured speaker is Barry Jacobson, who’ll deliver a presentation titled “The Success Equation: How to Create a Culture of Hospitality Excellence to ‘Infinity & Beyond.’ ” (We appreciate the Buzz Lightyear reference there.) Jacobson has worked in event planning, logistics, and hospitality for such corporations and organizations as the Walt Disney Company, the Dallas Cowboys, and ClubCorp.

Jacobson’s NACE talk will detail his rock-solid formula—“People + Place + Purpose + Pride = Profits”—and discuss the ins-and-outs of a “Covid Comeback” from this past pandemic-roiled year that we’ve all weathered.
