About
Stranger Things: The Experience Atlanta is an immersive walkthrough event set inside the world of the popular Netflix series, hosted at Pullman Yards — a converted rail yard in the Kirkwood neighborhood that has become one of Atlanta's premier venues for large-scale immersive events.
The experience is designed specifically for fans of the show, and that prerequisite matters. Participants who have watched and love Stranger Things will find the production quality extraordinary — the environments are meticulously recreated from show sets, actors play in-character roles, and the narrative structure puts visitors inside the story rather than observing it from outside. The 4.
8-star rating from over 1,000 reviews reflects how consistently the experience delivers for its target audience.
For families: this is a tween-and-teen activity, not a young children's experience. The show's horror/supernatural themes, the complexity of the narrative, and the expected familiarity with the source material all point to an age minimum of around 12. Bringing a 7-year-old would not serve anyone well.
Practical notes: advance booking is essential and the experience is time-limited in its Atlanta run. Check strangerthings-experience.com/atlanta for current availability and whether the experience is still operating. Pullman Yards is in Kirkwood/East Atlanta, about 20 minutes from Buckhead and 15 minutes from downtown.

Why Kids Love It
Stranger Things: The Experience is a fully immersive walkthrough event set inside the actual world of the Netflix show — not a museum exhibit but an actor-led narrative experience where participants move through the Upside Down alongside show characters. Fans of the series find the level of production detail remarkable: every room is recognizable from the show, staff in character respond to visitors as part of the story, and the experience treats participants as actual participants rather than passive observers. Tweens who've grown up with the show find this transformative in a way that generic theme parks don't achieve.
