The New Year's Eve celebration will include ice sculpting, cosmic golfing and ice skating.
Police will enforce full road closures in the area surrounding the square Thursday.
Marietta Square is also hosting its first Winter Wonderland, complete with an outdoor ice skating rink and Santa's Workshop.
