I am new to Atlanta and have only been to the Cobb Energy Centre once to see Blast! I would love to win tickets to Shen Yun and have a chance to visit the performing arts center once again!

Our family moved to Georgia in August. We are enjoying exploring all that Atlanta has to offer, but we have not been to the Cobb Energy Centre yet. My son loves China and would love to see Shen Yun.

One of the best birthday gifts I ever received were tickets to see Bill Maher at the Cobb Energy Centre a year and a half ago. I loved the venue, very impressive, very diverse offerings! It does the metro area proud!

Yes! We adopted two daughters from China - they are 8 and 11 now. We would love to take them to celebrate Chinese New Year! We considered buying tickets but it is so costly to buy 4 tix. Even winning 2 would help us immensely!

Sad enough, WE HAVE NEVER been at the Cobb Energy Centre! We have seen it many times from I-75 and it looks to be a magnificent building. What a great opportunity it would be for us to see the Centre while enjoying an awesome show!!

I love to bring my four children to experience the Fine Arts. Our family moved to Cobb County 18 months ago from the midwest. We have been to 3 performances at the Cobb Energy Center for the Gas South Broadway Series. My children & I have greatly enjoyed the series!

My email also just arrived at 6:49 this morning so hopefully you can extend the deadline for those of us who didn't get the notice. Anyway, I've been to the Cobb Energy Center a couple of times. First to see Norah Jones and second for a large business association luncheon. I must say my favorite was Norah (even though the luncheon was also first class!)

We just received this email also at 6:49am. We have been 3x to the Cobb Energy Center, we saw Cirque du Soleil, GA music awards and Jim Gaffigan. We thought the Cirque performance was amazing!!
