‘Nashville’s Big Bash’ Returns To CBS To Ring In The New Year

August 31, 2022/by Lydia Farthing

New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash will return to ring in the new year. Slated for Saturday, Dec. 31 from 7:00-9:00 p.m. and then 9:30 p.m.-12:30 a.m. CT, the festivities will be aired on the CBS Television Network and will be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+.

Taking over from downtown Nashville, the star-studded special will be packed with performances, with the first round of entertainers including Brooks & Dunn, Kelsea Ballerini, Little Big Town and Zac Brown Band. Additional artists and information will be announced at a later date.

The inaugural broadcast in 2021 peaked with 5.51 million viewers in the midnight hour. Similar to last year, the five-hour celebration will feature nearly 50 performances from locations across the city, including the main stage in Nashville’s Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park. The broadcast will include the traditional countdown at midnight ET, culminating with the Nashville Music Note Drop and fireworks at midnight CT.

New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash executive producers, Robert Deaton and Mary Hilliard Harrington, work in partnership with the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corp. The special will be directed by Sandra Restrepo.
