The road to CPSNYE 2027: a celebration built for the live stream
October 18, 2026
Charles Pedota's Spectacular New Year's Eve 2027 brings the celebration online on December 31, 2026. The broadcast starts with a pre-show at 5:30 PM Eastern, followed by the Freedom Ball raise at 6:00 PM.
The celebration is a private production, not a public gathering. Viewers can follow the music, interviews, tributes and midnight countdown through the free live stream.
The miniature Village, the Freedom Ball and the people behind the broadcast each have their own story. This daily series explores those confirmed details as New Year's Eve approaches.
Visit the Live Streaming page for the current run of show, or send a wish through the Wish Wall to join the celebration from wherever you are watching.
