    Rideshare or taxi

    Estimated costUSD 45–100
    Best forHartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) to Georgia World Congress Center

    Simplest option with luggage or demo gear; allow extra time on weekday mornings and early evenings when I-75/I-85 into downtown is congested. Confirm fares in-app before travel.

    MARTA rail (Red and Gold lines with downtown transfer)

    Estimated costUSD 2.50–7.50
    Best forATL Airport Station to Five Points, then transfer to GWCC/CNN Center on Blue or Green line, or exit at Peachtree Center and walk

    Cheapest airport-to-downtown route; trains run frequently. Not ideal with very large luggage or display cases. Confirm current fare and transfer details before travel.

    On-site parking at GWCC

    Estimated costUSD 10–25 per day
    Best forGeorgia World Congress Center on-campus parking decks and surface lots

    Event pricing may apply on peak days; closest lots fill early during a major convention. Pre-book where the venue allows and confirm current rates before travel.

    Walking between downtown hotels and venue

    Estimated costUSD 0
    Best forCentennial Park and downtown hotel district to GWCC

    Most convention hotels in Centennial Park and Peachtree Center are a 5-15 minute walk. Use well-lit main pedestrian routes after evening events. Confirm local safety guidance before travel.

    Short rideshare within downtown

    Estimated costUSD 8–18
    Best forDowntown hotels / Peachtree Center to GWCC or evening event venues

    Useful for longer downtown hops or in bad weather. Confirm fares in-app; surge pricing possible during convention peak hours.

    Weather

    February in Atlanta is cool and changeable: typical afternoon highs of about 13-16 C (55-61 F) and overnight lows of about 1-4 C (34-40 F), with occasional cold snaps pushing temperatures to or just below freezing. Rain falls on roughly 9-11 days of the month, usually as passing fronts rather than all-day drizzle. The Georgia World Congress Center is fully indoor and climate controlled, so dress for the walk between hotel, MARTA station and hall rather than for the show floor itself. Confirm the forecast close to travel: winter weather, even a light ice event, can occasionally disrupt operations at ATL and the surrounding region.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    Downtown Atlanta has broad LTE and 5G coverage from the major US carriers, so calls, maps and mobile data work reliably around the GWCC, Centennial Olympic Park and the convention hotel district. International visitors should either enable a US-inclusive roaming plan or buy a travel eSIM or prepaid US SIM, because some home-country plans charge heavily for US data and others exclude it entirely. Large-venue Wi-Fi is typically shared and can slow down during peak show hours, so treat your own mobile data or a hotspot as the primary connection for lead-capture apps, hunt-booking payments and stand photos. US mains power is 120 V at 60 Hz with Type A and Type B plugs, so most European and Asian visitors need a plug adapter; a charged power bank is worth carrying on long floor days.

    Ride-hailing

    Taxis

    Public transit

    Car rentals

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Floor etiquette with firearms and optics

    Ask before handling any firearm, knife, bow or optic on a stand. Most exhibitors welcome supervised handling of demo pieces, and any actual purchase is processed through a licensed dealer rather than handed over at the booth.

    Booking hunts on the floor

    Outfitters and their agents routinely take deposits during the show. Bring a payment method and get the daily rate, trophy fees, licence costs, wounded-animal policy and cancellation terms in writing before you commit.

    Time your aisle walk

    The outfitter and safari-travel aisles are busiest in the middle of the day. Walk the stands you care about most at opening or in the final hour, and book sit-down meetings with priority operators in advance.

    Tipping and dining

    US tipping norms apply in Atlanta: 18-20 percent at table-service restaurants, and a dollar or two per drink at a bar. Many downtown steakhouses and Southern restaurants near the GWCC fill up during a convention weekend, so reserve ahead.

    Dress codes

    The floor is casual to smart-casual, often with outdoor or Western-leaning wear. Evening conservation banquets and auctions tend to call for business or smart-casual attire, so pack one smarter outfit.

    Downtown and Centennial Park district

    The GWCC sits in the Centennial Park district alongside Mercedes-Benz Stadium and State Farm Arena. Stick to the main pedestrian routes between the hall and your hotel, and use a rideshare for short hops after dark in February.

    Cold mornings, warm halls

    February mornings in Atlanta can be near freezing while the show floor is heated and busy. Wear a jacket you can shed, and keep a compact umbrella or rain shell in your bag.

    Practical guides

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Destination: ATL

    Google Flights captures for the 6-8 February 2027 travel window show nonstop options into Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) from New York in roughly 2 hr 35 min to 2 hr 46 min and from London Heathrow in roughly 9 hr 25 min to 9 hr 59 min. Long-haul origins such as Tokyo, Sydney, Dubai and Singapore route through connections rather than nonstop. On the New York search the only fare extracted was from USD 210, and the price insight at the time of capture indicated that the cheapest booking window was later in the run-up to departure while current prices were high. Because February can bring winter weather to the Atlanta hub, plan to arrive a day early if your first day on the floor is critical, and build a connection buffer of at least two hours on inbound itineraries.

    Transport

    Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

    Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL): Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) is the main commercial gateway serving Atlanta; allow 45–60 min by road or rail to Georgia World Congress Center.. Allow road or rail time to Georgia World Congress Center; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.

    Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Georgia World Congress Center: Downtown Atlanta / near Peachtree Center: Downtown Atlanta / near Peachtree Center; Centennial Park district / GWCC campus edge: Centennial Park district / GWCC campus edge; GWCC campus, attached or directly adjacent: GWCC campus, attached or directly adjacent.

    Ride-hail: Uber and Lyft both operate across metro Atlanta, including the airport, downtown and the GWCC area. At Hartsfield-Jackson (ATL), follow airport signage to the designated rideshare pickup zones rather than arranging a curb pickup. At the Georgia World Congress Center, use the marked passenger pickup points around the campus, as hall-side curbs are marshalled during events. Expect surge pricing on show mornings, at the end of the day and around evening auctions, and order the car a few minutes before you leave the hall so you are not waiting in the cold.

    Public transit: Atlanta's MARTA rail network is the main public transit option for visitors. The Red and Gold lines run from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) into downtown, and the Blue and Green lines serve the GWCC/CNN Center station on the venue side; a transfer at Five Points or a walk from Peachtree Center completes the trip. Trains normally run from early morning to around 1 am, and both trains and buses use the Breeze card or a reloadable ticket. A single journey is roughly USD 2.50 and multi-day passes are also offered - confirm live fares, pass options and service hours on the official MARTA site before you travel, since schedules change for weekend and event service.

    Parking: The Georgia World Congress Center operates on-campus parking decks and surface lots, with daily rates that vary by lot and event demand and event pricing applied on major show days. Arrive early on the first morning, especially if you are exhibitor staff bringing display items, and pre-purchase parking where the venue or organiser offers it. Nearby private garages and lots around Centennial Olympic Park and the downtown core provide overflow capacity, and downtown hotel guests should check whether their property includes parking. Confirm current rates, entry points and hall access on the venue or organiser website before travel.

    Weather

    Plan and pack for the event climate.

    Month: February (6-8 February 2027)

    Temperature: Typical Atlanta February range: afternoon highs of about 13-16 C (55-61 F) and overnight lows of about 1-4 C (34-40 F), with occasional colder snaps at or just below freezing. Indoor spaces are climate controlled, so the daytime high matters most for the walk to and from the venue. Confirm the forecast in the week before travel.

    Seasonality: February is one of Atlanta's wetter months, with roughly 4-5 in (about 100-125 mm) of precipitation spread across approximately 9-11 days. Rain usually arrives with passing frontal systems rather than persistent all-day showers, so a compact umbrella or packable rain shell is more useful than heavy rain gear. Snow and ice are uncommon but not impossible, and a rare winter event can disrupt flights at ATL.

    Packing: Pack layers rather than one heavy coat: a warm jacket or insulated mid-layer for near-freezing mornings, lighter shirts for mild afternoons and the heated show floor, and a compact umbrella or rain shell for February showers. Broken-in walking shoes matter more than formal footwear on the floor, which involves long days on concrete, and a power bank keeps phones and lead-capture apps alive through a full show day. Add one smart-casual outfit for evening conservation banquets or auctions, and a small adapter for US 120 V Type A and Type B sockets if you are travelling from Europe or Asia.

    Plan your trip

    Planning

    Best day to visit: Day 2 (mid-show)

    Mid-show days at DSC Convention usually combine full exhibitor attendance with scheduled B2B meetings, before early pack-down on the final day.

    T-1

    Confirm the basics: 6-8 February 2027, Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta. Check biggame.org for registration categories, hall hours and any age or membership conditions.

    T-2

    Register or buy your badge in advance and save the confirmation and any QR code offline on your phone.

    T-3

    Book flights into Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL) if you have not already; February fares from New York and London tend to climb closer to the show.

    T-4

    Reserve a downtown or Centennial Park district hotel. The closest blocks around the GWCC fill first on a convention weekend.

    T-5

    If you want to meet a specific outfitter, PH or brand, email ahead to fix a slot. Senior guides and product reps book up early in the show.

    T-6

    Write your buying brief: destination countries, species, party size, realistic budget band, or the optics, firearms and gear specs you want to compare.

    T-7

    Plan your rail route. MARTA Red and Gold lines link the airport to downtown, with a short transfer or walk to the GWCC; sort out a Breeze card or the MARTA app.

    T-8

    If you may book a hunt on the floor, decide your deposit method and prepare the questions you will ask about licences, trophy fees, wounded-animal policy and logistics.

    T-9

    Review US entry rules for your passport: ESTA if you qualify under the Visa Waiver Program, otherwise a B-1 or B-2 visa. Check passport validity.

    T-10

    If you are travelling with a firearm, re-check airline and TSA carriage rules (unloaded, locked hard case, declared at check-in) and the ammunition packing rules.

    T-11

    Plan a floor route by zone: outfitters and safari operators, firearms and ammunition, optics, archery, outdoor gear, taxidermy and art, conservation organisations. Prioritise the stands you cannot see twice.

    T-12

    Check the Atlanta February forecast and pack layers. Mornings can be near freezing while afternoons are mild.

    T-13

    Save hotel, GWCC and transit addresses in your rideshare app and note which GWCC entrance you will use.

    T-14

    Charge phone, laptop and power bank. The floor is phone-heavy for lead capture, quote photos and hunt bookings.

    T-15

    Travel day. Aim to land early enough to collect your badge before the floor closes, and allow 20-45 minutes from ATL depending on traffic.

    T-16

    Arrive at opening to walk the outfitter aisles before the crowds. Log stand numbers, quotes and contacts in one file each evening while the details are fresh.

    FAQs & glossary

    Answers

    Frequently asked

    What is the DSC Convention?
    It is the DSC convention and sporting expo hosted on the organiser site biggame.org, running 6-8 February 2027 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. The show combines a hunt-outfitter and safari travel floor with firearms, ammunition, optics, archery, outdoor gear, taxidermy and wildlife art, plus conservation and advocacy organisations.
    When and where does the 2027 DSC Convention take place?
    6-8 February 2027 at the Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC) in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, USA, in the Centennial Park district next to Mercedes-Benz Stadium and State Farm Arena.
    Which airport should I fly into for the DSC Convention?
    Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) is the commercial gateway for Atlanta, roughly 10 mi / 16 km south of downtown. MARTA Red and Gold line trains run from the airport into downtown, and a rideshare or taxi takes about 20-45 minutes depending on traffic.
    How do I register for the DSC Convention and do I need a badge in advance?
    Registration, badge categories and hall hours are published on the organiser site (biggame.org). Pre-registering speeds up arrival, and you should bring photo ID and your confirmation email to badge pickup. Check the organiser page for the current cut-off for advance registration.
    Can I book a hunt with an outfitter at the show?
    Yes - outfitters and their booking agents commonly take deposits on the floor. Before paying, ask for the daily rate, trophy fees per species, licence costs, wounded-animal policy, dip-and-pack and shipping terms, and the season and concession details in writing.
    What should I bring if I plan to book or compare hunts at the DSC Convention?
    Bring a short written brief: destination countries or species you are considering, your realistic budget band, party size and travel dates. A notes file for stand numbers and quotes, plus a card or bank details for a refundable deposit, makes the floor far more productive.
    Are firearms and ammunition on display at the show, and can I buy them there?
    Firearms, ammunition and optics are a major part of the floor and most stands allow supervised handling of demos. Any actual sale or transfer is processed through a licensed dealer under federal and Georgia rules, so expect a transfer and background-check process rather than an over-the-counter handover.
    What are the rules for travelling to Atlanta with a firearm for a hunt?
    US airlines and the TSA require firearms to be unloaded, in a locked hard case and declared at check-in; ammunition must be packed separately per airline rules. Carry documentation for the firearm and check whether Georgia recognises your home carry licence before you travel.
    Can I bring hunting trophies or wildlife products into the United States?
    Only with the correct permits. CITES permits, US Fish and Wildlife Service declarations and, for some species, additional state or federal approvals are required, and rules differ by species and country of origin. Confirm the import chain with the outfitter, a trophy import agent and the relevant US agencies before you commit to a hunt.
    Is the DSC Convention family friendly?
    Hunter conventions of this type are generally family friendly, with youth and first-hunt programming, art and taxidermy displays and gear areas that appeal to non-hunting members of the party. Check the current programme for age-specific sessions and any family ticket options.
    How do I get from my hotel to the Georgia World Congress Center?
    Hotels in the downtown and Centennial Park district are walkable to the GWCC in roughly 5-15 minutes. From further out, take MARTA rail to a downtown station (Five Points or GWCC/CNN Center) and walk, or use a short rideshare.
    What is the weather like in Atlanta during the DSC Convention?
    February is cool and changeable: typical afternoon highs of about 13-16 C (55-61 F) and overnight lows of about 1-4 C (34-40 F), with occasional colder snaps near freezing and rain on roughly 9-11 days of the month. Pack a warm layer and a compact rain shell.
    Do international visitors need a visa to attend the DSC Convention in Atlanta?
    Travellers from Visa Waiver Program countries normally enter under an approved ESTA; others generally need a B-1 business or B-2 visitor visa from a US embassy or consulate. Apply well before February 2027 and confirm current requirements with official US government sources.
    Is there parking at the Georgia World Congress Center?
    Yes - the GWCC operates on-campus parking decks and lots, with daily rates that vary by lot and event. Arrive early on peak show days, or use MARTA and walk in from a downtown station to avoid the busiest periods.

    Glossary

    1
    DSC Convention
    The annual DSC convention and sporting expo listed on biggame.org, held 6-8 February 2027 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta. The floor mixes hunt outfitters and safari operators with firearms, ammunition, optics, archery, outdoor gear, taxidermy, wildlife art and conservation organisations.
    2
    Outfitter
    A licensed hunting operator or safari company that sells guided hunts by destination and species. Outfitters and their booking agents are the anchor exhibitor group on the floor, and most take deposits for future hunts during the show.
    3
    Professional hunter (PH)
    A licensed guide in many African and other hunting countries who leads the hunt, enforces quotas and licence rules and signs off the necessary paperwork. Buyers often meet PHs and their agents in person at the convention.
    4
    Concession or hunting area
    A leased or government-allocated tract where an outfitter holds hunting rights and species quota. Concession quality, quota availability and season dates are the usual first questions when evaluating an outfitter.
    5
    Trophy fee
    The per-animal charge on top of daily rates, quoted per species and destination. Ask for daily rates, trophy fees, licence costs and any wounded-animal policy in writing before paying a deposit.
    6
    Daily rate
    The day fee an outfitter charges per hunter (and sometimes per observer) for guiding, lodging and field transport. It is separate from trophy fees, licences, dip-and-pack and shipping.
    7
    CITES
    The international agreement that sets permit rules for moving wildlife products, including hunting trophies and many taxidermy items, across borders. Trophy import and export needs permits from both the exporting and importing country.
    8
    Dip and pack
    The field-to-taxidermist service that prepares and preserves trophies (salting, treatment, crating) before export. It is normally quoted separately from the hunt itself.
    9
    Dangerous game
    The classic large and potentially dangerous species group, including the big five, that usually requires a minimum calibre, a licensed PH and sometimes a dangerous-game permit in the destination country.
    10
    Optics
    Binoculars, spotting scopes, rangefinders and riflescopes. Optics brands use the convention to let visitors try glass across a range of magnifications before buying.
    11
    Suppressor or moderator
    A sound-reducing device for a rifle. Rules on ownership, transport and use vary by country and state, and exhibitors usually explain the compliance chain for both hunting destinations and home jurisdictions.
    12
    Conservation organisation
    A non-profit working on habitat, anti-poaching, wildlife management or hunter advocacy. These organisations typically occupy a large block of the floor and run fundraising auctions of donated hunts, gear and art.
    13
    Live auction
    A fundraising auction of donated hunts, firearms, art and trips. Hunter-convention auctions are a headline evening event and a major reason many visitors stay for the full three days.
    14
    Safari travel planner
    A specialist who arranges flights, firearm export permits, airport meet-and-greet and in-country transfers for a hunt. Planners work alongside outfitters rather than replacing them.
    15
    Youth and first-hunt programme
    Outreach sessions and mentoring slots aimed at new and young hunters, often paired with scholarships or donated mentored hunts. Check the current seminar schedule on the organiser site.
