About "3-2-1 Day"
Celebrate with the Space Coast Community This Year!
Get ready for the third annual "321 Day" in Brevard County—a lively, grassroots celebration of Brevard’s Birthday and the 3-2-1 area code that unites our Space Coast community, thanks to the vision of Robert “Ozzie” Osband.
Celebrating Brevard's Birthday
Brevard County doesn’t have a single birthdate. Its history is woven from scattered moments—decisions made, boundaries drawn, communities built—yet no singular day marks its official arrival. But if there’s one force that truly put Brevard on the map, it was the birth of the space program, a movement that transformed this region into the launchpad of human exploration.
And even that wasn’t just one moment in time. The space program’s origins stretch across decades, shaped by visionaries, engineers, and dreamers. So what defines our birth? What moment unites our past, present, and future?
For that, we look to 321.
A simple area code—yet so much more. Thanks to the late Robert “Ozzie” Osband, the 321 count down became the signature of Florida’s Space Coast, forever linking our community to space exploration. It’s the one thread that ties us all together, from the beaches of Titusville to the launchpads of Kennedy Space Center, from the historic charm of Cocoa Village to the thriving industries and growing communities of Palm Bay.

Gabriel's' vision for 321 Day is for this experience to grow and become an iconic annual event for Titusville.
