About the Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders

The Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders consist of 40 female and male members who perform for their home team in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. They were established in 1969 as The Falconettes before being changed to their current name in 1976.

Most of the time, the Atlanta Falcons cheerleaders and players often get mistaken for their Arizona Cardinals peers due to the similarity of their color themes and team logo designs. Only hardcore fans of their respective communities can tell each other apart.
