Exploring Atlanta
This year's conference will be held in the heart of Atlanta's Luckie Marietta district, the center of Atlanta's vibrant downtown culture. Extremely walkable, friendly and safe, the area offers plenty of great dining and entertainment options. Enjoy the sparkling Olympic Rings Fountain and green
space in Centennial Olympic Park, or visit the Georgia Aquarium (the world's largest!), the Children's Museum of Atlanta, or take the CNN Studio tour. And for large scale, world renown sports and entertainment, Phillips Arena and the Georgia Dome are right on your doorstep. Luckie Marietta is home to some of the best dining Atlanta has to offer, too, while being just a short walk or ride from other popular downtown areas.
