As you’re getting ready for the New Year and welcoming 2022 (while saying a well-earned goodbye to 2021), you’ll want to watch a countdown clock that counts all the way to midnight, no matter which time zone you’re in. These will come in handy as you’re celebrating New Year’s Eve and need a timer that tells you exactly when 2022 starts. Below is a roundup of countdown timers for New Year’s that you can use tonight.

The Times Square Webcast and countdown will be available at TimesSquareNYC.org, NewYearsEve.nyc, or TimesSquareBall.net, along with their associated mobile apps. The live stream will celebrate the countdown at every hour, followed by a longer countdown that will take place when the clock strikes midnight in the Eastern time zone. You can also watch the whole thing in the live stream below.
