My biggest problem would be that the team party needs to remain an event that's closed to the public. While we want to do everything we can to attract attention and interest in our Atlanta event, we don't want to risk safety to the competition participants.

A party in Centennial Park might be fun, but faces two challenges. The first is the most obvious -- weather. Does Centennial Park offer the same sort of indoor attractions found at Epcot that can accept an influx of thousands of people? It doesn't, as far as I can tell.
To the first... absolutely. I agree that the party should be closed off to the public. To the second, it's not Epcot, but what else is? I doubt that there's any easily accessible area nearby with the kind of "indoor attractions" like Epcot. Centennial Park wouldn't be Epcot, but we have to work with what was chosen, and the whole concert thing seems like something interesting and doable, given the facilities available.
