Seventy miles from Atlanta, which means a corporate group can fly into the busiest airport in the world and be in a college town by lunch. Add a music scene that built R.E.M. and the B-52s, and Athens becomes the rare collegiate market that works for a program that isn't about football. Though the football is the reason most people call.
Seventy miles from Hartsfield-Jackson. A national group can land, transfer, and be in Athens inside two hours. No other SEC town has that access, which makes Athens the easiest collegiate market in the conference to actually get people to.
93,000 seats and a program that has been at the top of the sport. Suites, club level, and hospitality around a home Saturday are real corporate inventory, and demand well exceeds supply.
Athens has an actual downtown with an actual music scene, not just a strip of bars. The 40 Watt, the Georgia Theatre, restaurants worth a private buyout. It gives a program somewhere to go that isn't the hotel ballroom.
A partial list. The venues we use most, and what you actually need to know about each one.
Two hours from the world's busiest airport to a college town with a real downtown. Nothing else in the SEC does that.Curate: Athens
