Carrie Underwood will be performing this New Year's Eve on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2025. The nation’s most-watched New Year’s Eve celebration. Ryan Seacrest will mark his 20th year as host and will return alongside co-host Rita Ora to lead the festivities from New York’s Times Square.

Underwood will join an all-star roster of artists performing before the ball drops at midnight, including Megan Moroney and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

Carrie said, “I have such fun memories of performing on New Year's Rockin’ Eve in Times Square in both 2007 and 2015, and I’m so excited to perform just before the ball drops again this year."

She added, "I’m thrilled to celebrate 20 years since winning American Idol by joining Ryan as he hosts his 20th New Year’s Eve in Times Square.

Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2025 will air Tuesday, December 31, live on ABC beginning at 8:00 p.m. EST and stream the next day on Hulu.

Underwood will perform a medley of some of her biggest hits live in Times Square just before midnight.

The country superstar will showcase her career in a concert special coming exclusively to Hulu in January. Carrie Underwood: Reflection will give audiences a front-row seat to her Vegas show.

Carrie's show had a three-year plus run at Resorts World Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas. Underwood recently announced that she will conclude her reign as the venue’s first and longest-running headliner on April 12, 2025.

The show captures a "one-of-a-kind production" conceived by the superstar specifically for Las Vegas to celebrate highlights of her career. The show features her greatest hits from nearly 20 years as a recording and touring artist, including 14 Number One hits and songs from eight of her studio albums.

Carrie told us of her Vegas show, "'Reflection' is just kind of all about we want to do our hits. We want to reflect upon all the things that we've been so blessed to be able to accomplish over the past few years and that I've been lucky enough to do this. Then, when you think about a staging standpoint, 'Reflection' is what you can do a lot with visually."

She added, "It just seemed like a great concept as far as what we could do with it on stage and also having that kind of personal reflection, being able to look back on all of the things that we've been able to do."
