Bad Axe Throwing’s operating hours vary week to week. Check the website for dates and times.

Visitors can still experience all the animals like horses, kangaroos, camels, goats, pigs and more - but now, from the comfort of their cars on a trip to the Cartersville farm.
“My daughter, she got to studying the restrictions and how to comply with it, and see what we could do, and she said, ‘Daddy, I think this will work,’" farm owner Scott Allen said.
Visitors have to make a reservation ahead of time and stay in their cars on the visit.
Atlanta’s iconic outdoor entertainment venue with 360-degree views of the Atlanta skyline has opened with restricted operations. To ensure the safety of guests, employees, and the community, the venue, which includes several open-air spaces, is taking extra care and precautions to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. These precautions include reducing capacity by more than 50%, facilitating cash-free transactions only, using menus that will be disposed of after each use, offering disposable plates, glasses, and silverware, among others.
“Reopening in the safest and best way possible is our top priority. At this time, we feel confident that with our unique 80,000 square feet open-air rooftop and outdoor seating, we can more than adhere to the recommended 6 feet social distancing guidelines and can continue to keep our employees and guests safe while we resume business,” said Mandy Slater, from the Roof at Ponce City Market.
Of note, the Heege Tower and slide will remain closed until further notice.
The popular Atlanta Ferris wheel opens on Friday, May 8. The plan is to open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays to start. The SkyView Ferris wheel features 42 climate-controlled + private gondolas providing guests with breathtaking panoramic views of downtown Atlanta and the surrounding metropolitan area. On Mother’s Day weekend, all moms fly free with the purchase of a regular priced ticket.
Terminus is just off Interstate 75, about 45 minutes north of Atlanta. It’s a cable wake facility. Terminus instituted some changes with its reopening including requiring online bookings, only offering two-hour passes, social distancing will be required with designated spots in line, no rental gear is available, minors must be accompanied by an adult and no entry is you’re experiencing any symptoms. The Aqua Park is not open at this time.
