As 2022 winds down, New Year’s Eve TV celebrations are turning up.
If partying at home is preferable to braving frigid temperatures, ride-share surge prices, crowded clubs and bars and overbooked restaurants, worry not. We’ve got you covered! Festivities are bringing the music, star power and even tipsy hosts (fingers crossed), all of which you can enjoy from the comfort and joy (comfort and joy) of your own home.
You can make it your resolution to get out more next year – or not! Here’s how to party with Dolly Parton, Miley Cyrus, Ryan Seacrest, Jimmie Allen and more.

Hosting Thanksgiving? How to reduce stress according to culinary icon Ina Garten
Miley Cyrus and her godmother Dolly Parton will ring in the New Year from Miami for Cyrus’ second NYE special, which she hosted last year with Pete Davidson.
While Parton previously sang about her “9 to 5,” her working hours will be a little later come Dec. 31. For the special, airing on NBC and streaming live on Peacock, she’ll be working 10:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. EST. Musical acts and other guests have not yet been announced.
CNN’s new CEO, Chris Licht has reportedly called for coverage with less booze. Variety says that during a November town hall, Licht expressed to staff “on-camera drinking eroded the credibility of CNN personnel and damaged the ‘respectability’ they may enjoy among viewers.”
So what does that mean for anchor Anderson Cooper, who typically indulges at the nudging of his pal, “Watch What Happens Live” host Andy Cohen?
Cohen told The Hollywood Reporter that nothing about their celebration will change.
“What (Chris Licht) said was that he didn’t want the correspondents out there drinking, but that he wanted Anderson and I to do our thing,” Cohen told the outlet. “So I’m happy to do our thing. My only directive for years on CNN has been to have fun on New Year’s Eve, and that is absolutely what I plan to do.”
