Special Event Assistance

With the extraordinary number of special events going on in the city of Marietta, the fire department is challenged to find ways of meeting the needs of the large numbers of attendees. The July Fourth Celebration, The Glover Park Concerts Series, the Brown Bag concerts, and Road Races are just a few examples of the events that draw large numbers of visitors. Large fire apparatus may have difficulty getting through the crowded streets, so Marietta's Fire Department strategically places EMTs and Paramedics throughout the event location. Equipped with supplies ranging from basic first aid to heart defibrillators, Event Team members are able to reach those in need of care. View photos of our Event Response Team members at work.
