And soon this venue that features a DIY bar where kids can create over four million different slime concoctions using 40 colors, 150 charms, and 60 scents featuring fruits, florals, and more will be ready to host parties in the city. This place will inspire every guest to put down their phones and get into some serious fun.

Georgia Aquarium

With two ways to party, this is one cool spot to host a birthday in the city. On the day of the party, you and your guests can enter the aquarium as early as you would like,  and now you are welcome to bring your decorations, cake, drinks, or refreshments. Parties are hosted on Saturdays and Sundays, and start at $45 per person with a 15-person minimum. You'll get 90 minutes of party time for the standard package, and there are a few fun perks that make the Premium Party worth the extra cash. With this party-goers get reserved seats at the dolphin presentation, and it comes with themed decorations so you don't have to worry about those details. But the best perk of all might just be the parking voucher for one car. No headache parking day is a total win.
