A great way to get into a festive frame of mind is to volunteer to help decorate the Park on Saturday, Nov. 12 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Volunteers will be stringing lights on the shrubbery throughout the Park to create the enormous Holiday in Lights display. Individual volunteers are welcome or share the experience by volunteering as a group. Make it a celebratory outing by volunteering with your department, family or friends. If your group can’t make it on Nov. 12, call the Park to arrange a better time.

Holiday in Lights will be bigger than ever this year. From November to January the lights will be on display, and volunteers can feel pride in knowing they helped bring cheer to all visitors of the Park. Holiday in Lights is a great holiday tradition enjoyed by both locals and visitors to Atlanta. Be a part of it by volunteering to make it happen. Get in the holiday spirit and contribute to downtown cheer-volunteer!

For more information on how to volunteer for this fun and festive activity call Jennifer Tinker, Visitor Center & Volunteer Coordinator at 404.223.4093.

A lasting legacy of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Centennial Olympic Park has become a performing-arts venue, community gathering-space and an anchor for downtown development. The Georgia World Congress Center Authority operates the 21-acre Park, as well as the Georgia Dome and Georgia World Congress Center. The three state-owned facilities are one of the largest combined sports, entertainment and convention center facilities in the world.
