The downtown Atlanta<\/a><\/strong> skyline features an impressive architectural feat: the Georgia Dome<\/a>.\u00a0 More than likely, your kids aren\u2019t incredibly interested in the amazing facts and features that make the Georgia Dome the largest cable-supported dome stadium in the world, but they are pretty impressive.\u00a0 The 27-story tall, 1.6 million square-foot building consists of 8,300 tons of steel- more than the Eiffel Tower!\u00a0 Possibly more interesting than the architectural facts, the dome is the regular home to the NFL\u2019s Atlanta Falcons and Georgia State University. It has hosted two Super Bowls, the 1996 Olympics, and numerous men\u2019s and women\u2019s NCAA Final Four, including the forthcoming 2013 March Madness finals.\u00a0 In addition to sporting events, the Georgia Dome hosts Monster Truck and Supercross events, as well as world class concerts from the industry\u2019s biggest names.<\/p>\n

If you have a sports fan on your hands, be sure to head to the dome for a tour offered every Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon.\u00a0 For less than the price of a luxury cup of coffee, you can explore the Dome.\u00a0 On the tour you can visit numerous points of interest including the 200-feet-high Observation Deck, the highest seats in the dome, as well as numerous suites, lounges, luxury boxes throughout the arena, and even the Press Box.\u00a0 Two tour highlights are in store: a visit to the Falcons locker room, recently added as part of the tour, and even a trip to the field where you can check out the FieldTurf to see how realistic the fake turf really is.
\nIn town on a game\/event day?\u00a0 Check out these family-friendly perks:
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Baby changing stations in every restroom.

\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tag-a-Kid program to help your child be identified if they are separated from you.

\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Falcons Landing- a NFL theme park with free games, live music, and even the chance to get autographs.\u00a0 Located on the International Plaza between the Georgia Dome and Philips Arena, the area is open before Falcons home games and gives your little ones plenty of chances to get some energy out before kickoff.
