Hulu to Live-Stream NYE in Times Square
Hulu will carry its second-ever live stream on Wednesday night — that of the famous New Year’s Eve outdoor ball-dropping party in New York City’s Times Square.
You can access the stream here or just check back on the embed above. It’s probable that Hulu’s feed will be geo-blocked for viewers outside the U.S., but EarthCam is also carrying the same live feed as well as spliced-together webcam feeds from around the world.
The satellite feed comes from the Times Square Alliance and is being offered to sites and mobile operators free of charge. It starts at 10 p.m. ET, and will be hosted by Univision’s Raul “El Gordo” De Molina and actress Angélica Vale.
Previously, Hulu live-streamed the final two U.S. presidential debates in October. The site, which had 4.8 million visitors in November, mainly carries TV episodes and some movies, but it’s also bulking up its online originals and is expected to get into music videos as well.
