MARIETTA, GA -- Marietta residents can celebrate the coming of 2016 in style during the first-ever new year’s celebrations on Marietta Square,.

The square will come alive with music, food, football, and more starting at 8 p.m. and going well into the new year, according to the Marietta Daily Journal. A ball drop will ring in the new year in the heart of the square, though the final location has yet to be determined.
