The special day is inspired by Orange County’s area code, 407, and encourages residents to dine in, get takeout, or order delivery from their favorite local restaurants. 2020’s #407 Day saw nearly 300 Orange County restaurants participate.

Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings said, “Our restaurant community has always represented a vital part of who we are as a region. This year, we are proud to continue to show our support for our restaurants through ‘#407 Day.’ Although it has been challenging, we are resilient and we continue to always have a neighbors helping neighbors philosophy. I encourage our residents to enjoy the time out or order takeout or delivery.“
