Networking on a Global Scale

Atlanta’s Premier Diplomatic Gathering

The International Consular Ball (ICB) is Atlanta’s longest-running and premier diplomatic event, honoring the Georgia Consular Corps for their leadership and contributions to commerce, culture, education, and innovation. Hosted annually, the Consular Ball convenes diplomatic representatives alongside Georgia’s business, civic, and community leaders for an evening of fine dining, curated entertainment and networking on a global scale.

The International Consular Ball brings Atlanta’s international and local leadership together in one setting—celebrating global partnership while strengthening the relationships that support Georgia’s economic and cultural vitality.

Proceeds from the International Consular Ball directly support the work of the Georgia Council for International Visitors (GCIV). These funds enable GCIV to further implement professional exchange programs for emerging global leaders on behalf of the U.S. Department of State and other partner agencies.

In 2025, GCIV welcomed 315 international visitors from 98 countries and territories, connecting them with Georgia professionals and communities through bipartisan professional exchange programs that ultimately cultivate positive global change.

Attend the International Consular Ball

The International Consular Ball is both a celebration and a commitment—to diplomacy, partnership, and global understanding.
