Why Choose Our Destination?

Located between the world’s most traveled airport and Atlanta’s booming downtown, the ATL Airport District is one of the country's most connected and convenient destinations for planning meetings and events for small and large groups. With direct flights and low-effort transit options to exceptional meeting facilities, top hotels, an eclectic mix of restaurants, and experiential attractions you won’t find anywhere else, there is no place like the ATL Airport District. Your Gateway to Great Meetings The flexibility to meet in the ATL Airport District is fueled by the unmatched meeting facilities, hotel accommodations and restaurants within the Gateway Center Campus at the center of it all. Here, you’ll find the second-largest convention center in the state and the world’s only convention center connected to an airport. With 400,000 total sq. ft. of meeting space, the Georgia International Convention Center (GICC) is adjoined to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport via a free, 2-minute ATL SkyTrain ride—combined with complimentary shuttle service to and from hotels. Adjacent to the GICC is the state-of-the-art Gateway Center Arena @ College Park. This 3,500-seat sports and entertainment venue offers 100,000 sq. ft. of space and is the official home of the WNBA Atlanta Dream and the Atlanta Hawks G-League team, the College Park Skyhawks. Unmatched Mix of Meeting & Group Hotels The District offers over 7,000 hotel rooms within a 3-mile radius of the airport, 950+ of which are within walking distance of the GICC, all with free airport shuttle service. Choose from 30+ meeting and group hotels, most recently renovated or new, with rooms and onsite event spaces far from your typical airport stay—four of which are right in the heart of the convention campus, with two more on the way. Group Experiences The ATL Airport District is an authentic cluster of cities, each with unique venues that double as experiential attractions and incredible cuisine scenes for groups to enjoy amazing food inspired by the awe-inspiring stories of the community. Plan an event, take a tour, and hit the test track at the Porsche Experience Center Atlanta.
