TIMES SQUARE, Manhattan (WABC) --
Around 1 million people are expected to converge on New York City's Times Square for the annual celebration. The party begins with musical acts, including Luke Bryan, Charlie Puth, Demi Lovato and Carrie Underwood, and ends with fireworks and the descent of a glittering crystal ball from a rooftop flagpole.
There are some street closures already in effect in the area.
Spectators are expected to pack into a 20-block area.
This year's festivities will also be attended by nearly 6,000 New York City police officers, including members of a new specialized counterterrorism unit.
The officers are all heavily armed.
