A top-notch location for a not-so-typical conference experience
Decatur’s modern, comfortable conference center sits near the center of our friendly, walkable downtown.
Our compact 4.7-square-mile footprint of 4.7 square miles means nearly everything is only steps away, so you can stay focused and unfettered by the logistics of getting around. Just six miles from downtown Atlanta and 17 miles from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, we’re well-connected and easy to access from the metro area and beyond. Fly in and take MARTA rail straight from baggage claim to the Decatur Station, right under our town square.
Our downtown square ranks as one of the top ten on USA TODAY’s 10 Best Readers’ Choice travel awards (and has for three years in a row)! Two upscale hotels and the Decatur Conference Center are just a block away. Decatur also has an A+ walkability score from Walkscore and is a silver-level bicycle-friendly community.
Your attendees will enjoy exploring independent shops and restaurants during breaks and after sessions each day. Decatur boasts one of the best food scenes in the world with James Beard award-winning and Atlanta “best of” restaurants. Live music is always on the calendar, and playful public art awaits around every corner.
Decatur received the All-America City Award in 2023 and 2018. And our downtown was named one of American Planning Association’s 10 Great Neighborhoods for 2013. Decatur also received the inaugural Visionary City Award presented by Georgia Trend magazine and the Georgia Municipal Association.
Whether you’re planning a large-scale conference, corporate meeting, seminar, or retreat, Decatur has the space, services, culture, and people to make your event memorable. Don’t be surprised if your attendance exceeds projections when you meet in Decatur!
