We love going to local World of Coca-Cola, Georgia Aquarium and Stone Mountain.
We recently celebrated Middle Girl’s birthday at World of Coca-Cola recently and built some great memories searching for the Vault of Secret Formula.
We went with our church family to Stone Mountain in July. And we’ve been to the Georgia Aquarium three times with our annual passes. Many more visits to come since we are studying Apologia’s Marine Biology with our high schoolers and Swimming Creatures with the younger three. So thankful we have such great places close by!
So, I did want you local folks to know about all these fun things to do around Atlanta – many thanks to World of Coca Cola for the tips!
Fun Around Atlanta for Labor Day Weekend
- SEC or ACC? If you’re a fan of the Crimson Tide or the Hokies, sport your team’s colors at the Tech Tailgate or Bama Bash before heading to the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game, and see the rivalry in action at Tailgate Town.
- For diehard fans, be sure to check out the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game FanZone at the Georgia World Congress Center before the game for some free swag and to see the official team walks.
- Calling all Coca-Cola enthusiasts – Fan Days at the World of Coca-Cola are Aug. 27 through Sept. 3. Buy your tickets here and receive $3 off general admission to get a glimpse inside the world’s #1 brand and see what the fizz is all about.

I really don’t want these days of watermelon and summer to end. We’re still searching for the secret formula…
