Dick Clark Productions has rolled out another round of performers for their annual New Year’s Rockin’ Eve celebration. Megan Thee Stallion, Sabrina Carpenter, Jelly Roll, and Tyla will help ring in the new year when the broadcast airs live from New York on ABC at 8 p.m. ET on Dec. 31.
Jelly Roll will be joined in Times Square by special guest Jessie Murph to perform a medley of hits, while Carpenter will take the stage to perform “Nonsense” and “Feather.” Tyla will showcase her latest single, “Truth or Dare,” as well as the viral hit “Water,” and Megan Thee Stallion has a special performance in store for the Hotties.
The artists join previously announced artists Green Day, Ludacris, Janelle Monáe, Ellie Goulding, Doechii, and Thirty Seconds to Mars. Nile Rodgers and CHIC, Paul Russell, Loud Luxury, Two Friends and Bebe Rexha, Reneé Rapp and Coco Jones, and Aqua will also perform on the special.

For the first time, the annual special will be broadcast live on 150 iHeartRadio stations nationwide. This also marks the first year that Dick Clark Productions puts on New Year’s Rockin’ Eve since it was acquired by Penske Media Eldridge, the parent company of Rolling Stone and other entertainment magazines and brands.
