Top volleyball talent competing in Atlanta
We don't have a beach here in Atlanta -- but this weekend, 900 pounds of sand will set the stage for an exciting tournament happening at Atlantic Station.
Pro Beach Volleyball in ATL: Atlanta doesn’t have a beach, but our city does have a very strong connection to the sport of beach volleyball. After all, beach volleyball was introduced as an official Olympic sport back in 1996, right here in Atlanta — so, a big event happening this weekend is as much a homecoming as it is a tournament. The Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) serves up its Gold Series 2023 with the Atlanta Open this weekend, bringing pro players to the sand at Atlantic Station for three days of aces, blocks, and digs. Event times are 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday, Noon to 10 p.m. on Saturday, and 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday — tickets are available on the AVP website here
