Outgoing Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Tuesday that fully vaccinated are welcome to attend and witness the ball drop in Times Square this New Year’s Eve, as long they bring proof of vaccination and I.D.
The ball drop will be de Blasio’s final day as mayor of the Big Apple and then Democrat Eric Adams will be inaugurated on Jan. 1, 2022.
“We are proud to announce the ball drop, everything, coming back full strength, hundreds of people there to celebrate. We can finally get back together again. It’s going to be amazing,” Mayor de Blasio said in a conference.
“We want to welcome all those hundreds of thousands of folks, but everyone needs to be vaccinated,” he added.
