What is the name of the New Year's Eve television special hosted by Dick Clark for decades in the United States?

The long-running United States television special hosted by Dick Clark is Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve.

The program premiered on NBC in 1972 as Three Dog Night's New Year's Rockin' Eve, then moved to ABC and was renamed New Year's Rockin' Eve for the 1973–74 celebration. Dick Clark became its defining host and connected the broadcast with the Times Square ball drop.

Clark hosted the show for many years and later shared hosting duties after health problems. Ryan Seacrest became the program's principal host in the 2000s, while the title retained Clark's name in tribute to his role.

The special is a television program, not the name of the Times Square public celebration itself. Its broadcasts combine live countdown coverage with musical performances and celebrations from other locations.
