Celebration is the 22nd album by the British rock band Uriah Heep. It features re-recorded classic songs from the band, as well as two tracks written specifically for this release. A double Deluxe Special Edition on digipak format features an extra live DVD recorded at the Sweden Rock Festival. A Collector's Edition features a 2-song (vinyl) single in addition to the regular Celebration CD (the songs on the single were also recorded at the Sweden Rock Festival, and were not included on the DVD).

Celebration was released in most European territories on 6 October 2009 in the U.K., on 26 October 2009, and approximately one month later in the United States.

In 2015, keyboardist Phil Lanzon released a music video for "Corridors of Madness" featuring footage taken while on tour in Israel and the United States.[3]
