Marietta Welcome Center

The Marietta Welcome Center & Visitors Bureau was established in 1984 as part of Marietta’s Sesquicentennial Celebration. It is a private, non-profit organization that promotes Marietta as a tourism destination with an emphasis on heritage and cultural tourism: thereby increasing overnight visitation by reinvesting visitor generated tax dollars into messages and services targeted exclusively to the visitor.

The Center keeps visitors on track with:

• Marietta’s Heritage Passport. Three heritage museums, one ticket at a 25% discount. Available for purchase at the Welcome Center.
• Historic Marietta self-guided Walking/Driving tour brochure
• Brochures on attractions, special events, accommodations, restaurants, etc.
• Memorabilia and gifts
• “Marietta – Our Hometown” video, narrated by Joanne Woodward
• Tourism information on various regions in Georgia
• Newsletter on what’s happening in tourism and around the square

Visit us in the old Western and Atlantic Passenger Depot. This brick structure, built in 1898, is typical of passenger depots used at the turn of the century.

Hours:

Monday – Friday: 9:00am – 5:00pm
Saturday: 10:00am- 4:00pm
Sunday: 1:00pm – 4:00pm

The Bureau was named the outstanding Convention & Visitor bureau in the Southeast in 1994 and 1999 by the Southeast Tourism Society.
