CBC to Broadcast Niagara Falls NYE Celebration

The New Years Eve celebration in Niagara Falls will be broadcast live on CBC.

Mayor Jim Diodati made the big announcement at last night's City Council meeting.

He says people across the country will be able to tune in from 11:30 p.m. to midnight on Tuesday December 31st.

Local artist Valerie Borghesi will open the show in Queen Victoria Park.

Walk Off the Earth will hit the stage afterwards. The band was supposed to perform at last year's celebration, but had to cancel after their band member Mike Taylor passed away.

Bryan Adams will headline the show this year.

The free event will also include two fireworks displays; one at 9:15 p.m. and another at midnight.
