There’s Always Something Going On Downtown

Big Events and Family Fun

You know the instant you see it — a 20-story Ferris wheel and the world’s largest interactive fountains of the Olympic rings smack dab in the middle of downtown Atlanta — that you are somewhere special. You can feel it in the air. There’s electric energy in this urban core. 

Georgia World Congress Center Authority, North America’s largest combined convention, sports and entertainment campus, is here, along with more than 30 hotels, many of them iconic and inspiring. Centennial Olympic Park is at the epicenter, where you’ll find, nearby, World of Coca-Cola, National Center for Civil and Human Rights and Georgia Aquarium. Decadent dinners are devoured atop luxury hotels with stunning skyline views. It’s where playful experiences, thrilling professional sports and eclectic artistry thrive. 

Downtown expands in all directions with easy access to even more neighborhoods where big events and family fun meet. It’s the main event where you come to play and stay as you explore the storied history, the exciting nightlife and the inclusive and diverse people of Atlanta.
