ABC's "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest" is the preeminent destination for viewers to ring in the new year. Hosted by Ryan Seacrest live from Times Square, the show celebrates the year's very best in music, featuring a night of superstar performances. Wrapping up the holiday season, far and away, the nation's most-watched New Year's Eve celebration will give viewers a look at New Year's celebrations from around the globe.

Two changes from last year's (and previous years') broadcast are that New Orleans – a part of the broadcast lineup since 2017 – and a Disneyland location look-in have been taken out of the coverage rotation.

Recently renewed through January 1, 2029, the most recent edition of the top year-end special for well over 30 years drew 13.8 million total viewers and averaged 4.1/29 among adults 18-49 last year. During the midnight quarter-hour, the televised holiday tradition peaked at 17.9 million viewers and a 5.3 18-49 rating.
