Companion Program

Guests registered for the Companion Program may start their day with Breakfast in the Companion Lounge located in Rooms 309 – 312 on the Third Level of the Hilton Atlanta, Monday – Friday, July 8 – 12, beginning at 08:00.

Explore Atlanta’s top destinations with symposium friends…locations featuring classic “pop” culture and memorabilia, fine art and 20th century U.S. history, to name a few.

Each day an executive mini-coach and guide will arrive at the Hilton Atlanta to escort the group to a different local destination. Upon arrival at each destination, you will be responsible for purchasing your own entry tickets, if applicable, and will have time to explore on your own. You may return with the group to the hotel at an appointed time or stay in town and return at your leisure via taxi, Uber or short walk (returning from CNN is an approximate 15-minute walk, for example).

Register for as many days as your schedule allows!

PLEASE NOTE - by purchasing an ATLANTA CITY PASS in advance, you save approximately 40% on the purchase of multiple venue tickets AND save time at each venue, as you’ll have your ticket in hand!
