Today, the Cobb Chamber announced its plans for a new name and venue for its longstanding monthly breakfast event series, First Monday Breakfast. In 2020, the event series will be named Marquee Mondays and will be held at the Coca-Cola Roxy at The Battery Atlanta.
“First Monday Breakfast has always been one of our most successful Cobb Chamber events for members to connect, recognize accomplishments and learn from outstanding leaders in our community,” said Mitch Rhoden, 2019 Chairman of the Cobb Chamber’s Board of Directors. “But, with many of these meetings not actually occurring on the first Monday due to holidays and school calendars, it has become clear a name change is needed.”
“With the Cobb Chamber moving to a new office at 1100 Circle 75 across from The Atlanta Braves and The Battery Atlanta in January 2020, it seemed like the right time to revisit our premier monthly event,” said John Loud, 2020 Chairman of the Cobb Chamber’s Board of Directors. “By moving our premier event primarily to the second Monday of the month and location to the Coca-Cola Roxy, we will have more consistency with our date and with the same location each month.”
The Coca-Cola Roxy allows for flexible event space with floor seating and overflow attendance space in its balcony. The 53,000 square foot theater is equipped with state-of-the-art sound, light and production capabilities.
“As a growing organization, we’re always looking for ways we can innovate, where we can improve our offerings, and how we can continue enhancing our members’ experience,” said Sharon Mason, President and CEO of the Cobb Chamber. “We look forward to expanding the long-standing tradition of First Monday Breakfast as Marquee Mondays at the Coca-Cola Roxy in 2020.”
The 2020 Marquee Mondays are reserved for the following dates at the Coca-Cola Roxy:
- January 13
- February 10
- March 9
- April 13
- May 11
- June 8
- July 13
- August 10
- September 14
- October 5
- November 9
- December 14
The Cobb Chamber will share more details about Marquee Mondays at the Dec. 9th, 2019 First Monday Breakfast.
Mason added, “For the past eight years, the Cobb Galleria Centre has been a wonderful host for our First Monday Breakfast events. Members can still expect to attend key Cobb Chamber events at the Cobb Galleria Centre such as our Annual Dinner, the ARMAC Military Appreciation Luncheon, and more as we continue our long-standing partnership.”
