Bring in the New Year in ATL

The evening kicks off the new year with numerous parties and events, including  Gatsby's Penthouse New Year's at the Ventanas. While the 50°F weather may require a cozy jacket, it won't dampen the spirited atmosphere of Atlanta's New Year's fun, especially with the return of ATL's beloved Peach Drop at midnight at Underground Atlanta.
