Ring in The Roaring 20's This New Year's Eve with EarthCam

Enjoy VIP balcony view of Times Square festivities during live global webcast

December 27, 2019 -- Join EarthCam for its annual New Year’s Eve webcast on December 31 at 10:00 am EST as it welcomes the Roaring 20’s decade. The virtual celebration begins in Tokyo, Japan, then moves to the island of Boracay in the Philippines, followed by fireworks and celebrations from 50 exciting locations such as Dubai, Budapest, Prague and Dublin.

Times Square celebrations in New York City last all day – and so does the webcast. Viewers will be taken there via EarthCam’s network of live broadcast-quality streaming video cameras, including its recently upgraded 4K Crossroads Cam. Real-time, high-resolution panoramas will present a VIP balcony perspective overseeing the festivities, free from any harsh weather conditions. Viewers will feel like they’re right in the heart of it all.

Even after the ball has dropped, the one million people have cleared the city streets and the TV cameras have gone dark, EarthCam will go behind-the-scenes of the massive post-party cleanup. Viewers will get to see the choreographed operation of hundreds of sanitation workers removing tons of confetti and debris that blankets the city streets.

Returning this year is EarthCam’s skill for Amazon Echo Show. This allows viewers to tell Alexa, “Show me New Year’s Eve”, and be instantly transported to the celebrations in Times Square and other destinations, including Chicago, Nashville, Los Angeles, Kauai, Thailand, Denver and Lake Tahoe.

So ring in the Roaring 20’s with EarthCam’s webcast on https://www.earthcam.com/newyears/ and EarthCamTV at www.earthcamtv.com. Make the webcast a part of any party with EarthCamTV apps available for Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV. Spending the night away from a computer? Download EarthCam’s Webcams app for Apple and Android, and party on the go! EarthCam will also be live streaming on its Facebook and YouTube pages.
