The album advertisement features Madonna's name and the album title "Celebration" in a large sans serif font at the top. Below is a collage image of Madonna featuring different colors to emphasize it is a compilation album. This will appeal to multiple generations by including Madonna's music over her career. The release date is printed in the bottom right corner, following people's natural eye movement. A brief album summary is at the bottom in the weak fallow area against a grey background.
