Atlanta Web Resources

FIFA Atlanta website - Likely to have the most up-to-date information when FIFA / World Cup and has good and links to other Atlanta area resources.

Atlanta Convention and Visitors Bureau - Good info for City of Atlanta info, calendar of events, etc.

Mercedes Benz Stadium - renamed Atlanta Stadium for the World Cup by FIFA and Mercedes branding scrubbed.  However, all maps, web searches and locals will call it The Benz or Mercedes Benz Stadium.  The website is the best and most up to date resource for stadium maps and entrance locations, conduct, security, facilities, food and beverage, etc.
