We’ve got eyes on a live camera in Times Square on Wednesday, Dec. 31, where the famous Ball Drop happens every year. Watch the feed from New York City in the video player up above. If you’re in the Charlotte region (like we are) and not in New York City, there were several events planned to ring in 2026.

For the first time ever, New York’s venerable New Year’s Eve ball drop, a Times Square event that’s taken place every year since 1907, will happen twice in a single year.

Diana Ross is slated to headline, and various artists are to appear in New York, Las Vegas, Chicago, Puerto Rico and more.
