I recently attended a 3-day conference here. The is a beautiful conference center. The breakfast and lunch provided was really good. If you plan to attend a conference here for several days, be sure to wear comfortable shoes, because this convention center is large.

Great location. It was easy to find and parking was a breeze as well. Keep in mind I went for a morning to midday event, which likely made a difference here. Traffic was a bit congested getting here because there is construction going on nearby, but all in all it's a beautiful and spacious event place.

Great performance and event location near the college (UGA). Even has a beautiful ballroom! Ample parking in the garage with elevator. Daily parking is $15 (may be more on event days), and i think it was $2.50 hourly.

I always love going to the Classic Center. This was no different but I got to watch Linnentown the musical in which I was the Choreographer for. 🥰 …

Taking my kid to their first rock show! I was stressing because I couldn’t find a confirmation for my tickets that I bought back in spring. Called and spoke to Daniel in their ticket department and he was so quick I didn’t even have time to process he had already pulled them up. Very polite, helpful and gave me all the information I needed to feel secure in receiving my tickets for the show. Thank you Daniel!

I was there for a full day conference filled with presentations, vendor booths, and networking. This is a great place for such an event for over 1,500 attendees. There is plenty of room to spread out and navigate to each of the half dozen or so ballrooms. The facility is well maintained and felt safe because of the numerous points of egress. The acoustics, audio/video, and seating in the big auditorium provided a great experience.

The new Akins Arena is really nice. It was definitely a great place for our son's graduation ceremony.
