The College Football Hall of Fame is a hall of fame and museum devoted to college football. Scheduled to open in the fall of 2014, the new College Football Hall of Fame will be a 94,256 square feet attraction located in the heart of Atlanta’s sports, entertainment, and tourism district. Adjacent to the Georgia World Congress Center and Centennial Olympic Park, the new Hall will provide visitors with a highly-immersive, interactive, and engaging experience using a blend of historic college football artifacts and state-of-the-art, interactive multimedia exhibits.
The National Football Foundation launched the Hall in 1951 to stand as one of the nation’s premier sports shrines, immortalizing the game’s greatest players and coaches as positive role models for future generations. In 2009, Atlanta Hall Management, Inc. partnered with the NFF to construct and operate the new Hall of Fame facility, which will also provide a platform for community outreach, education and character development initiatives, as well as serve as one of Atlanta’s premier special event spaces.
Formerly located in South Bend, Indiana, it was connected to a convention center and situated in the city's renovated downtown district, 2 miles south of the University of Notre Dame campus. This location closed December 30, 2012.
