Atlanta summers are hot and humid. Whether the retractable roof is open or closed, staying hydrated is essential — especially if you walked from MARTA or a parking lot.
Every concession stand on every level provides free cups of ice water on request. No purchase necessary. NFL-wide policy. With $2 sodas also available (with free refills), there’s no reason to go thirsty at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Mercedes-Benz Stadium’s fan-first pricing means $2 sodas with unlimited free refills at Coca-Cola Freestyle machines on every level. Buy one early, refill all game. This is the best hydration deal in professional sports.
Filtered water refill stations are located near Guest Services desks on each level and near the Coca-Cola Freestyle machines. Bring an empty reusable bottle through security and refill for free throughout the event.
Atlanta summer temperatures reach 90-100°F (32-38°C) with high humidity. Even with the roof closed, you’ll be walking outside to get to the stadium. The walk from Vine City MARTA station is 10 minutes in open sun. Drink water before you arrive.
Dizziness, headache, nausea, heavy sweating, and muscle cramps are warning signs. Atlanta’s humidity means sweat doesn’t evaporate efficiently, making overheating more likely. Drink before you feel thirsty. First aid stations can help with heat-related issues.
With $5 draft beers, it’s easy to overdo it. Alternate one water for every alcoholic drink. The stadium’s affordable pricing makes it tempting to drink more than usual. Factor in heat and humidity, and dehydration sneaks up fast. Free water is always available.
Mercedes-Benz Stadium has trained medical staff from Emory Healthcare on-site for every event. Know where to go before you need it.
Staffed first aid rooms on the 100 Level (near Section 110) and 300 Level (near Section 310). Open from gates open through 1 hour after the event ends. Staffed by Emory Healthcare medical professionals.
First aid handles heat exhaustion, dehydration, minor injuries, allergic reactions, breathing difficulties, and medication needs. They stock over-the-counter pain relievers, antacids, and allergy medication. AEDs (defibrillators) are placed throughout the stadium.
Flag down any Guest Services staff member or security guard — they carry radios and can call medical personnel to your location. For emergencies, call 911 and give your section and row number. The Mercedes-Benz Stadium app also has an assistance feature.
Grady Memorial Hospital (Level 1 Trauma Center) is just 1.2 miles east at 80 Jesse Hill Jr Dr SE (~5 min by ambulance). Emory University Hospital Midtown (550 Peachtree St NE) is another option at 1.5 miles. Ambulances are staged at the stadium.
You may bring prescription medications into the stadium in their original container. EpiPens, insulin, inhalers, and other medical devices are always permitted regardless of bag policy. Inform security during entry if you carry medical supplies.
Both first aid stations have private restroom facilities for patients. Fully accessible and much quieter than public restrooms. If you have a medical condition requiring frequent restroom access, first aid staff can assist.
Veteran moves for Falcons games, Atlanta United matches, and concerts. Tested across dozens of events.
Vine City Station is a 10-minute walk. $2.50 each way vs. $40-60 parking. Faster exit after the game too — you’ll be home before drivers leave the lot. The Blue and Green lines both work.
Upper level (300-level) restrooms are consistently 50-60% less crowded than the 100 Level at halftime. The escalator ride up takes less time than the line you’d wait in downstairs.
Eat inside the stadium. Seriously. $2 hot dogs, $2 sodas, $2 popcorn, $3 fries, $5 beers — you can feed a family of four for under $30. No other stadium in America comes close.
Visit during mid-1st or mid-3rd quarter for virtually zero wait. Most fans go at quarter breaks and halftime. The open concourse design means you can still see the halo video board while walking.
Buy one $2 soda and refill it free all game at any Coca-Cola Freestyle machine. Dozens of flavors. This is the best deal in professional sports and most first-timers don’t know about it.
Yes, Chick-fil-A is open on Sundays inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium for Falcons games. It’s one of the only Chick-fil-A locations in the country that operates on Sunday. Get the nuggets.
If the weather is good, the retractable aperture roof may be open or opening during your visit. It’s a stunning engineering feat — looks like a camera aperture unfurling. The restrooms near Section 130 have a great angle to watch it.
If staying at the Omni Atlanta Hotel, walk through CNN Center and use the covered pedestrian bridge to the stadium. Climate-controlled the entire way. Use CNN Center food court restrooms before entering the stadium.
Every concession stand provides free cups of ice water on request. No purchase necessary. In Atlanta summer heat, this saves you $5-7 per cup vs. buying bottled water. Just ask politely.
Unlike many stadiums that only have family restrooms on one level, Mercedes-Benz has them on all three public levels. They’re less publicized and often have shorter waits than main restrooms, even at halftime.
Atlanta United halftimes are only 15 minutes vs. 20+ for NFL. Don’t wait for halftime to use the restroom — go in the last 5 minutes of the first half instead. The concourse will be empty while everyone’s still watching.
Skip the MARTA rush. Walk east to Centennial Olympic Park (0.3mi), use the free public restrooms, let the crowd thin for 15-20 minutes, then catch MARTA from Five Points or GWCC station with no crush.
Ben Jarvie is the founder of DunnyDash — the restroom finder for people who'd rather not gamble. A lifelong traveler, trekker, and self-described tumbleweed who has explored every corner of Australia and beyond, Ben built DunnyDash because he got tired of the three-search, one-desperate-purchase routine. After 17+ years on the road running service-based businesses, he turned that hard-won knowledge of every rest stop, stadium bathroom, and roadside block into a proper restroom finder — pulling from government open data, community contributions, and the kind of on-the-ground verification that comes from actually using the facilities. He writes about public infrastructure, accessibility, travel logistics, and the unglamorous-but-essential question of where to go when you need to go.
