Getting to Atlanta

By Air: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the busiest airport in the world with daily direct, non-stop flights from more that 150 cities. It is a hub for Delta and Southwest Airlines but is also served by almost all of the major carriers. The venue and hotels are accessible from the airport via the free ATL SkyTrain.

By Bus: Greyhound, BoltBus and MegaBus all serve Atlanta and have drop-off locations near MARTA stations, giving easy access to the venue via the Airport Station.

By Train: Atlanta’s Amtrak station is right in the heart of Midtown, but it will be easy to catch the cab/Lyft/Uber that you’ll need to get to the venue from there.

By Car: Three major interstates — I-20, I-75 and I-85 — all come together in downtown Atlanta. While that may snarl our traffic, it makes driving to Atlanta very convenient from most places in the southeast and mid-Atlantic regions.
