Drew Carey to host Cleveland’s New Year’s Eve celebration
CLEVELAND (AP) – Officials said northeast Ohio native Drew Carey will return to host the third annual Cleveland Rocks New Year’s Eve Celebration at the city’s Public Auditorium.
The Plain Dealer reported Carey kicked off Cleveland’s inaugural New Year’s Eve festivities in 2013.
Carey will be joined on stage by several performers, including Cleveland Heights teen hip-hop star Malcupnext.
Carey said he can’t wait to ring in the New Year with his fellow Clevelanders again.
Officials said this year’s celebration is being hosted at the Public Auditorium because of ongoing construction on Public Square.
Honorary chairman Brent Lewanski said citizens have no excuse to not join the party this year with the event being held indoors.
Founder Alonzo Mitchell said this will be the first and only year the celebration is inside.
