PREVIOUSLY: ABC and Dick Clark Productions are shaking things up on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest. The upcoming 52nd edition of the venerable holiday telecast will have new co-hosts joining Seacrest — Rita Ora will be live in Times Square while Jeannie Mai will emcee the Hollywood party in the Pacific Time zone. They succeed Liza Koshy and Ciara who held co-hosting duties for the past couple of years.
Ringing in the new year at midnight in the Atlantic Time zone (11pm ET), New Year’s Rockin’ Eve will once again feature a Spanish language countdown with Dayanara Torres returning as co-host from Puerto Rico’s Convention Center.
Eliminated from the lineup is the Central Time zone countdown from New Orleans, which had been part of the show since 2017. (Last year, Rockin’ Eve also added a Disneyland location to kick off Disney’s 100the anniversary celebration, which is not coming back.)
The changes come in Rockin’ Eve’s first year under new ownership at DCP, which was acquired in January by Penske Media Eldridge, a subsidiary of Deadline parent PMC. The annual program was recently renewed through Jan. 1, 2029.
The No. 1 New Year’s Eve special for over 30 years, Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2023 drew 13.8 million total viewers and averaged 4.1/29 among adults 18-49 last year. It peaked at 17.9 million viewers and a 5.3 18-49 rating in the midnight quarter-hour.
Airing Dec. 31, live on ABC at 8:00 PM EST, Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2024 will feature more than 5 1⁄2 hours of music performances, guests and a look at New Year’s celebrations around the globe. Details around performers will be announced closer to show night.
