Adventure Summary
The Mid-Summer Classic is coming to Atlanta this season and Simply A Fan is ready to help you check this off your baseball bucket list! Whether you want an all-inclusive package or just want to join us for an event or two, we are here to provide you with an opportunity to sit back, relax and let us take care of all the logistics in your trip planning so you can simply enjoy.
There are so many events during All-Star Week that it can be overwhelming unless you’ve been before. I’ve been to both Cincinnati (2015) and Los Angeles (2022) and through those adventures, I’m familiar with the entirety of the 5 days worth of fun. You will find all of the details below and your next step is to let me know what all interests you and I’ll provide you a free quote based on your selections.
By purchasing from Simply A Fan, you support our small family business. Based in Nashville, we launched in 2018 to provide sports fans with opportunities to create incredible memories on adventures at ballparks and stadiums across the country.

Hotel Accommodations
We have rooms at multiple locations in Marietta that you can choose from that are within 10-15 minutes of the ballpark. All of these hotels are within close proximity of each other. When filling out your interest form please indicate how many rooms, room type, how many nights and if you have a hotel preference. The locations are Home2 Suites, Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton Inn & Suites.
Ground Transportation
We are offering round trip ground transportation from Nashville that will allow you to relax on the 500 mile roundtrip journey, along with each day to each of the events. We will leave on Saturday, July 12th and return on Wednesday, July 16th.
If you would like to get yourself to Atlanta, then take advantage of ground transportation to and from the events each day, please notate that on your form. Price point to be determined based on interest.
Tickets
The Braves and Major League Baseball do not sell group blocks of tickets for events such as the All-Star festivities. Simply A Fan does have limited inventory. We will also be purchasing tickets on demand to each event from season ticket holders and our network of connections. When I provide your package quote, you can tell me if there are locations you do or do not want to sit and as expected. If you have a sun or shade or no preference, let me know that as well. Of course the price will adjust accordingly (i.e. – outfield seats for the HR Derby are the most expensive). I will provide you with seat location and costs, you will have the opportunity to accept or decline.
I have tracked ticket prices for All-Star Games for many years and have a good idea of the price range. Normally the closer to the event, the cheaper the tickets become, but there is also benefit in having the security that you already have your tickets 3 months out, 6 weeks out, 1 month out, etc….
MLB All-Star Village
Here is a great description from the MLB website of what this fanfest type event is all about. “Enjoy live entertainment, interactive games, savor delicious ballpark fare and soak up the unbeatable All-Star Week atmosphere. Capital One All-Star Village includes batting cages, demos with current and former players, photo ops, a Gaming Zone with the latest baseball video games and SO MUCH MORE!“

Pricing / Quote
Each package will be customized based on the preferences that you fill out on the interest form. It is difficult to put a price tag on the website as so many factors play into it – how many people, how many nights, how many events, ground transportation, etc…You will be charged costs for the items plus a 15% trip planning fee. Think of the trip planning cost like a gratuity for someone in the hospitality industry. We do all the work, you simply show up and go. (*If you pay by debit/credit card, add 3% to cover processing fees.)
Payment Options
15% trip planning – Zelle, check, cash
18% trip planning – credit or debit card

If your quote is not within your budget we can adjust (subtract items, change seat location, wait longer) and I will gladly send you an updated quote once we land on it. I’m very flexible.
