TRANSPORTATION FOR FAMILY WEEKEND
Transportation on Friday, October 20
Take advantage of Georgia Tech’s own Stinger, a bus service that takes you all around campus. Routes and schedules available online. Those going to Family Weekend at the Georgia Aquarium on Friday evening can ride the free Georgia Tech shuttle bus from 6 until 11 p.m. The shuttle will stop on Ferst Drive NW outside the John Lewis Student Center, and in front of the Georgia Aquarium on Baker Street NW.
Transportation on Saturday, October 21
Families will need to walk or find their own transportation to the Tailgate and/or football game on Saturday. Game day traffic makes it challenging for buses, so walking or finding other modes of transportation will be easiest that day. The Tailgate takes place on Tech Green behind the John Lewis Student Center, on Ferst Drive NW.
Transportation on Sunday, October 22
Jazz Brunch with Dean Stein will be held at the GT Hotel and Conference Center, on Spring Street NW. This is in walking distance from most hotels; see the parking section for information if you prefer to drive.
