Airport Information
We recommend flying into Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport. It is an international airport 7 miles south of downtown Atlanta, Georgia and is the busiest airport in North America.
It is easily accessible by Atlanta's public transit system MARTA or a $10-$20 shared ride service to the venue.
Ride In Style
Uber & Lyft
Parking in and around the city of Atlanta is a challenge, so we definitely recommend using the ride sharing apps. Shared rides are reasonable as most of the hotels and places to visit are only a few miles away.
Marta
Feel free to explore the city using the public transit system using the link to plan your trip. Standard MARTA fare is $2.50 with four free transfers allowed within a three-hour period. These transfers are not valid for round trips.
