Music City has built an outstanding reputation for throwing the most musical New Year’s celebration and country’s biggest party — and this year is no different. CBS Presents New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash will air live from Music City on Friday, Dec. 31 (7 – 9 p.m. and then 9:30 – 12:30 p.m.) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+.
This year’s celebration will be hosted by country music stars and Grammy-nominated artists Jimmie Allen and Elle King, as well as Entertainment Tonight’s Rachel Smith.
“New Year’s Eve has always been one of my favorite nights to celebrate because we get to reflect on the year we’ve had while getting a fresh start,” said Elle King.
