Brooklyn To Kick Off 2021 With A New Tradition Set to Rival Times Square New Year's Eve

BROOKLYN, N.Y. & NEW YORK - EntSun -- Apples & Oranges Public Relations is proud to announce Brooklyn's first-ever New Year's Eve ball coming in 2020/2021. #BrooklynRising is a history-in-the-making the project developed by entrepreneur and entertainment industry executive James Hill, which will provide Brooklyn with its own annual NYE ball, positioned to be the Borough's most iconic symbol, second to the Brooklyn Bridge. In stark contrast to the Times Square ball drop, the Brooklyn ball will RISE instead of drop.

Raising the ball at the start of every new year will create a new Brooklyn legacy, highlighting and promoting socio-economic growth and prosperity across the Borough of Brooklyn, as well as hope and promise for the New Year. Like the annual Times Square New Year's Eve event, attendees can expect celebrity performances, followed by a star-studded afterparty hosted by legendary Brooklynites. This event is expected to be televised and live-streamed to reach an international and diverse audience.
