State Farm Arena

Best seats

Lower bowl (100s) in the renovated, modern arena; upper 200s cheap. Downtown by CNN Center — sit lower for the atmosphere.

Parking

Downtown garages around the arena / CNN Center / Mercedes-Benz Stadium next door; MARTA is easier. ($20–40 USD)

Getting there

MARTA rail to the CNN Center / GWCC station, right at the door. The easy way in Atlanta traffic.

Bar scene

Downtown Atlanta by the arena is modest; the Centennial Park district has some, and Midtown / the Battery are short rides for better bars. Take MARTA and plan.
