“The Peach Drop is back and better than ever,” said Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens. “This festival has been a tradition for generations, and it is my pleasure to be able to host a world-class event with these amazing partners so residents and visitors alike can make new memories ringing in the new year together in Atlanta.”

The event will be held at Underground Atlanta Saturday, December 31, 2022, with the stage opening at 6:00 p.m. and the historic peach dropping at midnight. The much-beloved celebration attracts more tens of thousands of attendees and is cemented into Atlanta’s rich history.
