Fort Lauderdale, FL – CNN New Year\u2019s Eve Live with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen is set to showcase Fort Lauderdale\u2019s waterfront festivities during its nationally televised program, placing South Florida in front of millions of viewers across the country. <\/p>\n
Local tourism officials confirmed the city was selected to represent the region\u2019s coastal lifestyle and holiday energy during the broadcast.<\/p>\n
The daylong celebration will begin earlier on New Year\u2019s Eve at the Museum of Discovery and Science in downtown Fort Lauderdale. <\/p>\n
