The countdown for 2026 is on, and millions will be tuning in to watch New Year's celebrations taking place around the country.

There’s no wrong way to celebrate New Year’s Eve. Dinner and drinks with loved ones? Perfect! Counting down from a bar? Love it. But if you’re celebrating NYE from the comfort of your home, Decider’s here to help you make sense of the bevy of New Year’s Eve streaming options.

Here’s how you can stream the fan-favorite duo count down to the ball drop (maybe even with some booze) online for free

“CNN New Year’s Eve Live with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen” will return on Wednesday, Dec. 31, starting at 8 p.m. on CNN. The special will run well into the New Year, and you can watch live or on-demand on Sling TV or DIRECTV (free trial).

Happy New Year! It’s time to bid farewell to 2025 as we prepare to celebrate the start of 2026.
