Atlanta had the great opportunity of hosting Super Bowl LIII, held at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Along with the game, Atlanta was home to many music festivals and other fun activities to do throughout the week leading up to the game on Sunday.  

To kick-off, the week of Super Bowl attractions was the Super Bowl Opening Night Fueled by Gatorade. At Opening Night, this is the first interaction between the two teams and the media. This event consists of a big press conference, interviewing one team at a time, about the Super Bowl and what is expected of them. Also at Opening Nights, fans get a chance to meet a few Nfl stars and get some autographs.

One of the biggest attractions was the Super Bowl Experience Driven by Hyundai. During this experience, the fans get to walk through interactive exhibits, take pictures with the Vince Lombardi Trophy, get autographs and take a look at the previous 52 Super Bowl rings. With the interactive exhibits, you can pick which games you want to play. With the special Fan Mobile App, fans can participate in games vary from testing your quarterbacks’ skills to kicking a field goal to testing your receiver skills. Kids can go through a mini boot camp to “train like a pro” and then try on NFL gear to feel like an actual NFL player.
