As always, it will be broadcast live from Times Square in New York as well as from the West Coast in Hollywood (pre-recorded), from New Orleans (which was added to the lineup in 2017), and, lastly, Miami. Headliners this year are Post Malone; Korean boyband megastars BTS; Alanis Morissette and the cast of the Broadway musical Jagged Little Pill; and Sam Hunt.
Worth noting, BTS participated in Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve in Hollywood back in 2017. This will be their first time headlining the event live in Times Square.
Lucy Hale (Katy Keene) will be co-hosting with Ryan Seacrest this year from the middle of the action in Times Square. In previous years Jenny McCarthy (The Masked Singer) had been Ryan Seacrest’s co-host while Lucy Hale handled hosting duties in New Orleans. McCarthy is taking a break from her hosting gig, stating this year she’d like to spend New Year’s Eve with her family at home.
Singer Ciara returns to host the festivities in Hollywood and Billy Porter (Pose) will host in New Orleans.
