The career-spanning compilation, which will be available in both single disc and two-CD versions, will be released in the UK on September 28. A DVD featuring the singer's most popular videos will be made available on the same day.
It will be preceded by a single, also called 'Celebration', which will receive its first radio play on August 3.
Produced by Madonna and Paul Oakenfold, 'Celebration' is one of two new songs on the album. Madonna recently shot the accompanying video in Milan with longtime collaborator Jonas Akerlund.
In addition to the new songs, four classic Madonna hits have been confirmed for the album's tracklisting: 'Everybody', 'Express Yourself', 'Vogue' and '4 Minutes'.
The Celebration album cover - pictured above right - has been designed by Mr. Brainwash, an LA-based street artist.
Madonna has notched up 62 UK top ten hits since making her chart debut in 1984, 13 of which have reached number one. She has released two previous hits compilations, 1990's The Immaculate Collection and 2001's GHV2.
