About Us
Ocala Magazine: The Ultimate in Gracious Central Florida Living
Since 1980, Ocala Magazine has been the region’s definitive city and lifestyle publication, celebrating more than 45 years of excellence. Recognized as Ocala’s most award-winning magazine, OM is proud to showcase the very best of Marion County, its people, culture, businesses, and stories.
In 2018, Ocala Magazine entered a new era of ownership, purchased by Philip Glassman, bringing fresh creative, administrative, and marketing teams together. With this new vision, we continue our tradition of delivering engaging, community-driven content paired with cutting-edge design and a distinctive voice.
Our offices are located in the heart of Ocala’s historic district on Fort King Street. When you visit, look for the “Honey Bee,” our beloved Horse Fever horse created by artist Christian Stanley, standing proudly out front.
