The Georgia Games are an annual collection of sports festivals and championships, held in July, and started 18 years ago, as "an Olympic legacy, began due to the state's eagerness to prove Georgia's interest in amateur sports".

The events are somewhat undermarketed, but offer 41 different sports, for a wide range of ages and skill & fitness levels. The fastest to slowest runners can take part in the 5k and 10k runs. There's archery, billards, bowling, lacrosse, mountain biking, swimming, weighlifting and many more. Most of the events are held in the metro area, with some here in DeKalb County, such as the boxing competition held at Doraville.
