We are on the cusp of a new year as old man 2021 is about to become baby 2022 and Toronto is ready to celebrate New Year's Eve pre-recorded performances and live fireworks along the Lakeshore. The show will be broadcast on the City's YouTube channel starting at 10:30pm on December 31, 2021. 

The evening will be in celebration of the fight against Covid-19 and honouring frontline workers. Lights will be dimmed at 10pm for the end of the Cavalcade of Lights at City Hall.

Mayor John Tory says; “We have worked with Toronto Public Health to plan a safe New Year's Eve celebration for our city. This year's livestream show and fireworks will celebrate the progress we have made as a city confronting the COVID-19 pandemic and honour our frontline workers, including those working non-stop to help residents get vaccinated. I encourage residents and visitors to log on and join us as we safely ring in the New Year, looking forward to a brighter 2022.”

Several iconic Toronto locations and music venues will be included in the entertainment lineup which can be watched safely at home. Music will be by Walk Off the Earth and Andy Kim (at El Mocambo), Dwayne Gretzky (from their studio), Tamar Ilana (at Aga Khan Museum), Young Creek Indigenous drum group (at Small World Music Centre), Soukustek (at Lula Lounge), Marczyk Family and Friends - from Lemon Bucket Orkestra and the Medusa Quartet (at Small World Music Centre).

From the City; "At midnight, high-altitude fireworks displays will launch simultaneously across Toronto’s waterfront as part of the livestream broadcast. Fireworks will be viewable from anywhere with views of Lake Ontario. Please note that there are no fireworks happening at Nathan Phillips Square or the CN Tower. To further make the livestream as safe a production as possible it will be emceed by television personality Devo Brown now from a closed studio set. The livestream will be offered on the City of Toronto's CultureTO YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZwUSt2WevE beginning at 10:30 p.m."
