Veranda Suites

It doesn’t get any better than the Veranda Suites at Philips Arena. These luxurious spaces are all inclusive and look more like a living room than a place in a stadium.

The views are as elite as it gets as well. The Veranda Suites are raised just above the 100 level sidelines and offer perfect elevation to watch the game.

The Swing Suites are probably one of the most unique in all of basketball. Sponsored by TopGolf, the Swing Suites mix basketball and golf and create an extraordinary entertainment experience.

The high-end suites feature golf simulators with HDTV’s and lounge seating for all the guests. Once the game is going on, head on over toward the bowl for fantastic views onto the court. All Swing Suite ticket holders will also be treated to all-inclusive food and beverage.

Getting to State Farm Arena can be a headache due to Atlanta’s well-known traffic issues. The WAZE app is an excellent way to determine what route will work the best from your location and help you avoid any construction areas or accidents. There is plenty of parking near the arena, but your easiest and most cost-efficient way of getting to the game is by riding the MARTA light rail system. The MARTA rail system has a station (Dome / GWCC / Philips Arena / CNN ) on its east/west line that will deliver you within feet of the arena. MARTA charges a flat fee, no matter how far you travel on the system and is a great bargain, as you avoid parking charges and traffic hassles.

Once inside the arena, you will find a totally open concourse looking out over the seating bowl and the basketball court. For the first time ever, the concourse goes 360 degrees around the arena, as the wall of suites/private access area no longer exists. The seating bowl also provides much broader aisles than in its previous incarnation. The concession stands and other amenities are more accessible throughout the facility.

Where to eat?

The concessions area has been totally overhauled during the renovation, not only in a physical sense, but also in its approach to serving the fans. The arena has adopted the very popular Fans First concessions policy pioneered by its next-door neighbor, Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Prices for the most popular fan favorite food items have been reduced dramatically. Samples of the prices include $1 chips; $2 candy, pretzels and bottled water: $3 hot dogs, nachos and fries: $4 pizzas, popcorn and sodas and $5 domestic beers. The arena has also adopted the efficiencies used at Mercedes-Benz to keep the lines moving. These include a 71% increase in points of sale over Philips Arena, 40% more beer taps, items are sold in even dollar amounts to reduce time required to make change and drinks are provided at self-service stations away from the counters. All concession stations also look out over the seating bowl via the open concept concourse.

The layout of concession areas has also gone through an extreme makeover. A food hall concept has been employed, featuring some of Atlanta’s favorite restaurants. These include J.R. Crickets (wings), Cracklin’ B’s Barbeque, Old Lady Gang (soul food) and Rita’s Italian Ice. A separate area called Westside Little Italia Atlanta features a district of Italian based concessions (Antico Pizza, Gio’s Chicken Italiano, Caffe’ Antico and Bar Amalfi).

One last addition is the arena’s first sit-down dining option that is open to all fans. Zac Brown of the Zac Brown Band has opened the Zac Brown Social Club, featuring a southern gourmet menu.

Atmosphere

Anyone walking into State Farm Arena expecting to see the same place they saw just a year ago is in for a big shock. The arena is very much the home of the Hawks, but it has taken on a whole new attitude and atmosphere. Gone are the wall of suites that once consumed half of the seating of the arena. Taking its place are additional seating for the everyday fan, along with some new game day experiences. The demolition of the wall of suites allows the concourse to run 360 degrees around the seating bowl for the first time since the building opened in 1999.

The concourse also has been opened up to allow the fans to see the action from the moment they step into the building. The basketball capacity of the arena has been reduced to 17,500, with the extra space being set aside to provide more amenities and a better fan experience.

The concourse is now laid out in seven distinct “neighborhoods.”  They include the Front Porch, which provides a panoramic view of the arena and new scoreboard, along with Killer Mike’s SWAG Shop, a barbershop where you can kick back, talk sports and enjoy the game while getting a haircut. The next three neighborhoods are all about the food. The Hawk Walk Market provides a food hall filled with a variety of food vendors from Atlanta’s best restaurants on the concourse level, while the 200 level is home to A-Town Eats, with additional vendors and the Atlanta Brew Pub. The third foodie area is the Fan Zone, an area that stretches from one baseline to the other in the upper deck which provides a chef driven menu. Two additional neighborhoods of interest are the Courtside Club, which features a bar just feet from the playing area on the floor and the Players Club, a private club located just behind the players bench. It is built underneath the seating bowl and provides club members with views into the players entry tunnel and the post game interview area.

The technological improvements in the arena are stunning. Replacing the old scoreboard is the first continuous 360-degree video board in the NBA. In addition, video boards have been added in each of the four corners of the facility, assuring every fan a clear view of replays and other important information about the team and upcoming events. As Atlanta’s primary indoor concert venue, the sound system is crystal clear and state of the art.

The team’s goal is to make State Farm Arena a more open and friendlier environment for its fans, whether they are there for a Hawks game, a concert or some other special event.

Neighborhood

Just as the “neighborhood” inside the arena has changed greatly, so has the neighborhood outside the area. The Georgia Dome was imploded and replaced by a park/green space area known as the Home Depot Backyard, which serves as tailgate central for the Atlanta Falcons as well as community events. The Mercedes-Benz Stadium is now in its second year of wowing fans with its futuristic design and technology. Big changes are also planned for the area immediately in front of the State Farm Arena. A live/work/play development is in the planning stages and would fill the space that formerly housed an industrial area.

Not everything in the neighborhood has changed. The arena still has a gate that provides direct entry into the CNN Center, with its very popular studio tours and restaurant complex. Just another block over is Centennial Olympic Park, home to several of Atlanta’s top attractions, including the World of Coca-Cola, the Georgia Aquarium, the Center for Human and Civil Rights and the College Football Hall of Fame. Two restaurants to check out within walking distance of State Farm Arena are STATS and Taco Mac.

There are a wide variety of hotels to choose from, as the Atlanta’s convention center is located next door to the arena. Like the ads say…”like a good neighbor, State Farm Arena is there.”

Fans

The Hawks are the first to admit that the team is currently in a rebuilding mode. This has been tough on the fans who saw the team go deep into the playoffs just three seasons ago. The team has decided to follow the blueprint of several other NBA teams who went through similar circumstances and now are regulars in the playoffs as a result.

Attendance has been down for the last few seasons, but the renovation of the arena has brought new interest and energy to the franchise. The mix of some well-known veterans with some young players with great potential has fans coming back to check the team out. Despite Atlanta’s reputation as a “bad sports town,” the locals have proven very loyal in their support of the local professional teams through thick and thin. They have seen the Falcons and the Braves rebuild and return to the playoffs and look forward to the same thing happening with the Hawks.

The new amenities at State Farm Arena have created a buzz in the local sports community similar to the openings of SunTrust Park and Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Layout

The arena seats 19,050 for basketball and 17,624 for ice hockey. The largest crowd ever for an Atlanta Hawks basketball game at the arena was Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals (against the Boston Celtics), where there was an announced attendance of 20,425. The arena includes 92 luxury suites, 9 party suites, and 1,866 club seats. For concerts and other entertainment events, the arena can seat 21,000.

On the exterior, angled steel columns supporting the roof facing downtown spell out “ATLANTA.” The side facing the Georgia World Congress Center originally spelled out “CNN” (whose headquarters adjoins the arena), but that section has since been altered to accommodate a Taco Mac restaurant. The Dome/GWCC/Philips Arena/CNN Center rail station below the arena provides access to MARTA public transportation.

State Farm Arena utilized the new “see-through” shot clock units which allow spectators seated behind the basket to see the action without having the clocks interfere with their view, joining FedExForum, Wells Fargo Center, TD Garden, United Center, Talking Stick Resort Arena and the Spectrum Center. Video advertising panels replaced the traditional scrolling panels.

History

After much consideration of possible other sites both in Downtown Atlanta and in the suburbs, it was decided that the Omni would be demolished, and a new arena would be built in the same location. The Hawks split their games between the Georgia Dome and Alexander Memorial Coliseum for the next two seasons while Philips Arena was under construction.

Philips Arena held its first event with a concert by the musician Sir Elton John. The Omni’s “center-hung scoreboard” now hangs in the lobby of Philips Arena, where it still displays the Omni’s logo along with those of Philips Arena, the Hawks, and the Thrashers (who never played in The Omni). The scoreboard still functions and displays information relevant to the game taking place in the arena.

Philips Arena achieved LEED for Existing Building: Operations and Maintenance certification as specified by the United States Green Building Council (USGBC). It was the world’s first LEED certified NBA/NHL arena. It has been nicknamed the “Highlight Factory”, due to the number of exciting plays, or highlights, that occur and Philips’ history with lights and electronics.

Renovations

The first phase of renovations, completed during the Hawks’ off-season, removed the upper levels of the suite wall, reducing the total number of suites from 90 to 40, and added the Courtside Club behind one of the baskets.

The arena renovations brought new premium seating areas, connected 360-degree concourses, a new center-hung videoboard three times larger than its predecessor as well as additional videoboards in the corners of the upper decks, new dining options including a bar and grill operated by country group Zac Brown Band and other unique features including an in-arena barber shop operated by Atlanta rapper Killer Mike and Topgolf suites.

Over 100,000 sq ft (9,290 m2) of former office and storage space within the arena was repurposed as “fan space”. The first ticketed event at the renovated State Farm Arena was So So Def’s 25th anniversary concert, while the Hawks’ first regular season home game against the Dallas Mavericks.
