Midnight: New Year Countdown

Turn your Apple TV into a cinematic New Year countdown for the whole room. Build the anticipation with music and animated light shows, then welcome 2027 with a celebration made personal by your family's voices.

AN EVENING THAT BUILDS
Choose your time zone and watch the days, hours, minutes and seconds lead toward January 1. Changing light effects, city tributes and special milestones set the mood for your New Year's Eve party. The final ten minutes bring music, New Year traditions and a dramatic crowd countdown to midnight.

MAKE MIDNIGHT YOURS
Scan the TV's QR code with your phone, approve the connection on your TV, and record a greeting of up to ten seconds. Listen back, send it to the TV, then choose Use This Greeting. Once the TV confirms it is ready, your recording replaces the default Happy New Year shout. You can record another take while your phone connection remains active.

TRY IT BEFORE THE NIGHT
Watch a free 25-second teaser that ends before midnight. Save the surprise for your celebration. With an active annual subscription, rehearse the full show using your actual sound and greeting settings. Choose Full Show, Effects Only or Silent, and adjust motion and lighting. Midnight Setup brings together the selected time zone, sound and greeting readiness.

KEEP THE MOMENT
At midnight, the full celebration begins. Enjoy a brilliant fireworks show, then keep the clean animated screen running for family photographs. Use the Siri Remote to reveal the exit controls.

AFTER THE NIGHT
From January through October, a seasonal Home welcomes the year ahead. With an active subscription, choose Replay Celebration to enjoy the midnight show again without the countdown. Explore the Show keeps rehearsals, personal greetings and the optional live countdown within reach. The countdown Home returns in November.

English and Spanish interfaces are available. The recorded announcer, crowd countdown and default Happy New Year shout are in English. Personal greetings can be recorded in any language.

Keep your Apple TV on with MIDNIGHT open at midnight. The app cannot wake a sleeping TV or run the live show while another app is open. A phone with a supported browser and internet access is needed to prepare a personal greeting. Prepared audio plays locally; if a selected greeting is unavailable, the bundled crowd shout is used. No personal recording is required.

Download and watch the teaser for free. An auto-renewable annual subscription is required for the live countdown, full rehearsals, celebration replays and personal greeting recording. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.
