Getting there
Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is 103 km (64 mi) away. Build a real transfer window into the arrival day and do not schedule anything important before midday.
Being 1.2 km (0.7 mi) from the middle of Athens means attendees can walk from their hotel, which removes the single most complained-about line in most event budgets.
Athens has 35 venues mapped in total and a population of 128,691. The Athens guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Formats this suits
Smaller spaces are where most events actually happen, and Sanford Field is one of them. A single-track day works; a programme with a trade floor attached does not.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
