The Viera Company is pleased to share that the Master-planned community of Viera has once again been recognized by John Burns Research and Consulting as a Top 25 Master-Planned Community in their annual national ranking of top-performing communities.

Reflecting on Viera’s continued performance, Oliver Radvin, Senior Vice President, Consulting at JBRC, noted:

“From my perspective, Viera continued to perform in 2025 because of the way the community was intentionally designed and built out over time. The project emphasizes connected neighborhoods, trails, parks, and community spaces that are integrated throughout the development rather than isolated amenities. Its location on the Space Coast provides an important backdrop, but Viera’s strong sales performance is driven by thoughtful community design, integrated town centers and services, and ongoing reinvestment that supports long-term livability.”

This recognition reflects decades of thoughtful planning, collaboration, and reinvestment focused on creating a connected, enduring community on Florida’s Space Coast.

This Saturday night kicks off Brevard's Christmas season with the annual “Light Up Viera Christmas Parade!!" Folks, there's no bad seat along the route so just find a place for your chairs, blankets or golf carts and get the kids comfortable for an amazing night of lights and holiday cheer!!

The event begins with fireworks starting at 6:00 pm, and the parade taking off right after that!!

This year's parade has a new route that will start at the intersection of Judge Fran Jamieson Way and Stadium Parkway, then go down Stadium to Viera Blvd, and ending at Manatee Elementary!! It's a great parade route so everyone will get a chance to see all the incredible floats, high school bands, beautiful displays, our Grand Marshal Saint, and of course, Santa Claus!!

For questions about the event please email Charity Executive Director Lindsey Deaton-Boane at [email protected].

I look forward to seeing everyone Saturday night as we begin the most wonderful time of the year!!
