Marietta

You will find the city of Marietta, and its population of approximately 60,000, right in the heart of Cobb County to the northwest of metro Atlanta. The city, which is the fourth largest of the principal cities of metro Atlanta, has been home to country singer Travis Tritt, the Atlanta Braves’ 2015 #1 draft pick Dansby Swanson, U.S. women’s national soccer team player Emily Sonnett and dozens of more notable people.  If you’re looking for a new experience in Marietta, check out a production put on by The Georgia Ballet. Founded in 1960, The Georgia Ballet offers several productions throughout the year and operates a ballet school with classes and training available to all ages.  Other Hot Spots to consider would be spending the day shopping in Marietta Square, enjoying Six Flags White Water, checking out the Marietta Museum of History, enjoying a show at Strand Theatre or taking a tour through the Gone With the Wind Movie Museum.  So much to see and do!
