Winans Set to Perform on CBS’ New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash on Wednesday, December 31
CeCe Winans closed 2025 as one of the most influential voices in modern music, surpassing 500 million in global annual streams (a 35% year-over-year increase and more than doubling the industry average), over 90 concerts – selling out 90% of all shows, and expanding her reach across Christian, gospel, soul, R&B, pop, and contemporary formats. Her cross-genre appeal continues to attract a rare multi-generational, global fan base.
Her momentum extended to digital platforms, where Winans more than doubled her reach in 2025, underscoring her growing cultural relevance worldwide. She will cap the year with a high-profile appearance on CBS’ New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash, airing December 31 at Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park. The special is set to air live on Wednesday, December 31st (8:00–10:00 PM ET/PT and 10:30 PM–1:30 AM ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network and streaming on Paramount+, joining a star-studded lineup that includes Keith Urban, Dierks Bently, Jelly Roll, Brooks & Dunn, Rascal Flatts, Kane Brown, Dwight Yoakam, and more.
Winans also expanded her international footprint with sold-out performances across Europe, Canada, Africa, and the Caribbean, and delivered one of the season’s most talked-about moments with her national anthem performance at the Detroit Lions’ Thanksgiving Day game.
“What has moved me most this year is seeing how music bridges every divide,” Winans shares. “Different countries, cultures, and generations came together and sang the same songs with the same joy. I’m honored to be part of something bigger than myself and I’m excited for what’s ahead. I don’t take any of it for granted. I’m grateful for every open door.”
In 2026, she will complete the final leg of her “More Than This Tour” and celebrate the 5th Anniversary of the Generations Live Women’s Conference (July 23–25, Nashville). With a legacy rooted in authenticity, connection, and global impact, CeCe Winans remains one of today’s most dynamic and enduring musical forces.
