Release and promotion
In May 2022, Twice announced that they would release an album titled Celebrate on July 27, to commemorate their fifth debut anniversary in Japan. The title track "Celebrate" was pre-released as a digital single on July 15, along with the accompanying music video.

To promote the album, Twice performed the eponymous title track on TV Asahi's Music Station, on July 22. The next day, the group performed "That's All I'm Saying" and "Celebrate" during a special live broadcast of NHK's music program Venue 101. Songs from the album were also performed during Twice Japan Fan Meeting 2022 "Once Day", held in Tokyo and Osaka for five days in October.

On December 28, Celebrate was released as a limited edition vinyl record. This is Twice's first album to be released in that format.
