Attend A Concert In Atlanta
Just like I mentioned about Charlotte, Atlanta is perfect for music lovers! There is always somewhere with live music and that was one of the main reasons we’ve gone down to Atlanta before.


We saw Morgan Wallen at the Atlanta Braves Stadium and it was my favorite concert ever! It was a very special event for me because this was the first time I got to see him.

I had tickets the year before to see him but I got sick and had to sell them. Then, the original concert for the Braves stadium got delayed almost 5 months after the original date.


But finally, when I got to see him, it was definitely worth it. And such a cool venue too for a concert! My hubby got these tickets for me for my birthday originally so this was a perfect date idea for us.

Especially since we are both huge Morgan Wallen fans! So be sure to check out any live performances in the area when you go.

Catch A Game At The Atlanta Braves Stadium
If concerts aren’t your thing, you could definitely still go to the Braves stadium and watch the Atlanta Braves play! This is another one of me and my husband’s favorite things to do whenever we go to Atlanta.

We try to catch a game at least once a year since the Braves are our favorite team. We always have a great time when we go and I think it’s a must to do while you’re there.

Even if you’re not the biggest baseball fan, it’s still worth checking out. Especially because the stadium is just so cool.









They call the area “The Battery” around the stadium, and there is so much to do there too. There’s a ton of restaurants, shops, and hotels all right there.






So it’s really nice because if you want to get there and just stay there, you can! You don’t have to deal with the crazy Atlanta traffic and just walk to all the places you need to go around the stadium.

It’s also a great way to split a longer trip up too. For example, last summer, we went down to Orange Beach, Alabama and stopped in Atlanta the night before to watch the Braves play. And to break up the long drive!

It’s hard to make a round trip to Orange Beach without stopping! Atlanta is the perfect place to spend a night in because you can do so many things. Even if you don’t want to attend a sporting event, there is something there for you!


Go To The Georgia Aquarium
You may think the aquarium is just for kids, but trust me, if you’re in the Atlanta area, you should definitely check out the Georgia Aquarium.

This is the largest aquarium in the United States so it is a must see. They even have 2 whale sharks there, which is the largest fish in the world. So that was very cool to see.


They definitely have more species than I’ve ever seen before in an Aquarium and a ton of interactive exhibits and fun activities going on all the time. It’s also located right in the heart of downtown Atlanta so there is plenty to do around the area too.


You can even get the Atlanta Citypass, which allows you to not only go to the Aquarium, but several other attractions around. This pass also includes a ticket to the World of Coca-Cola, which we’ve been to before.

This is a super fun attraction too because you get to sample all different kinds of Coca Cola around the world! We actually were gifted a Citypass from a friend after we got married and were able to check out several of these fun spots.

It was a fun romantic getaway for sure. The other places you can visit with the pass are: Zoo Atlanta, Chick-Fil-A College Football Hall of Fame, Fernbank Museum of Natural History, and Natural Center For Civil and Human Rights.

Visit Centennial Olympic Park
This historic landmark was built by the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games as part of the infrastructure improvements for the 1996 Summer Olympics.


So it’s a must-visit destination for sure. You could have a romantic evening here strolling through all the lush greenery. It’s also a great place with a lot of picnic areas so if you want to pack a picnic, this would be the ultimate perfect date night!

Not to mention, who doesn’t love free date ideas like that?! I would say a leisurely walk through Centennial Park is one of the top romantic things you can do while visiting the area.
Best Places To Eat In Atlanta
If you’re wanting to check out some delicious restaurants in the area, I have a couple of suggestions for you. While there are so many places to choose from, these are the ones we’ve been to before and can vouch for how delicious they are.



The first one being Pappasito’s Cantina. We’ve been here several times and it’s a perfect spot for lunch. We usually go there before we head into the Braves stadium since it is located close by.
Another delicious spot for a dinner date would be Ray’s In The City. We went there for dinner one night and absolutely loved it!



It was the perfect spot for a romantic date night with a beautiful setting inside too. And the food was incredible as well! I highly recommend this place.





Best Places To Stay In Atlanta
Like I mentioned above, when we go to the Braves games, we usually stay at the hotels around the stadium since it’s so much more convenient. They are all really nice too.



But, this past trip we decided to splurge a little and stay at The Candler Hotel Atlanta. And this place was absolutely phenomenal. The interior design to it was amazing.






The building used to be a bank and other offices such as a dental office too. The rooms were so beautiful and spacious and my favorite part was the soaking tub in the bathroom.





They even put out bath salts for you to enjoy too! The hotel also has an amazing restaurant called By George which was incredible as well.



The best part was that our server took us down below the restaurant to show us the secret vault. The bank owner that originally owned this building stored the actual, original recipe for Coca-Cola in here many years ago!





Y’all know we love anything with a good history like that, so this was very cool to see and experience. If you ever get the chance to, you should definitely stay here! It did not disappoint!
