Art Week NYC today announced the participating cultural institutions and nonprofit organizations for its inaugural citywide event, taking place November 11–14, 2026. Art Week NYC will celebrate New York’s extraordinary art ecosystem by bringing together museums, cultural institutions, galleries, artists, collectors, and audiences across the city. Select museums and institutions are presented in partnership with Bloomberg Connects.

Art Week NYC will feature a full day of public programming presented in partnership with Artforum and the New Museum, Art Week’s primary institutional partner, on Saturday, November 14 at the New Museum Theater.

Under the banner of “Art and the City,” these five talks will feature artists, architects, filmmakers, critics, and writers in five conversations examining the forces shaping art and culture in New York. Topics will include the redesign of notable museum spaces across the city, the growing movement of artists into filmmaking, the economic conditions faced by artists working in New York, and the impact of machine intelligence on studio practice.

This collaboration coincides with a significant moment for the New Museum, including the largest survey to date of the work of Arthur Jafa; the first New York solo museum exhibition of artist Diego Marcon; an exhibition tracing four hundred years in the history of the Bowery; and a new commission by artist Ho Tzu Nyen in the OMA-designed expansion of the museum’s downtown home.

The New Museum’s Toby Devan Lewis Director, Massimiliano Gioni, said, “Art Week NYC is a new initiative that brings the art world together, in a city that has been historically shaped and transformed by artists. We are thrilled that the New Museum will be at its center, as a catalyst for dialogues between artists, architects, curators, filmmakers, and the public: we have always thought of our institution as a place of encounters and conversations—a public plaza for new ideas.”

Art Week NYC will further expand across the city via the participation of leading museums, cultural organizations, nonprofits, and civic institutions.

Designed around the gallery neighborhoods, Art Week NYC will connect programming across Chelsea, Tribeca, the Lower East Side, the Upper East Side, and beyond. The citywide format will encourage audiences to move through New York and experience galleries, museums, cultural institutions, public spaces, and neighborhood destinations as part of one interconnected art week.

“New York City's world-renowned galleries and museums draw art lovers from all over the globe, but they belong first and foremost to the New Yorkers who live here,” said City Council Speaker Julie Menin. “Art Week NYC opens the door for our city's own artists and art lovers to support and be inspired by the creative institutions in our own backyard. The success of our city's cultural sphere has always been built on the voices and hearts of New Yorkers, and this week gives more of them a way to take part.”

“New York City’s cultural landscape is one of our greatest strengths, but it only thrives when New Yorkers are able to experience it, explore it and see themselves as part of it,” said Deputy Speaker Dr. Nantasha Williams. “A thriving cultural ecosystem creates opportunities on both sides: greater visibility and new audiences for artists, and greater access for New Yorkers to the range of art being created and presented across our city. Art Week NYC creates an opportunity to open more doors, bring new audiences into galleries and museums across the city, and introduce people to artists and cultural spaces they may not otherwise encounter. I’m excited about the energy Art Week will bring to our neighborhoods and the opportunity to deepen New Yorkers’ connection to the arts across our city.”

Featured on the cover of TIME100 Next 2026, which recognizes the world’s influential rising stars, and named the No. 1 most influential creator of 2026 by Rolling Stone, Druski is one of the entertainment industry’s leading comedic voices and has redefined comedy for the modern era, building a massive following through viral sketches, self-produced shows, sold-out tours and more.

Chart-topping artist, actress and global entertainer Rita Ora returns to co-host from New York's Times Square, and renowned multi-hyphenate performer Julianne Hough and NFL legend Rob Gronkowski will return to Las Vegas to lead celebrations from the  “Entertainment Capital of the World.”

The telecast’s landmark streaming debut follows a record-breaking 2026 edition that further cemented “Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve” as television's premier New Year's Eve destination.

More than 30 million viewers watched the iconic Times Square Ball Drop at midnight, while the 11:30 p.m.–12:30 a.m. hour alone attracted nearly 20 million viewers, outperforming all competing New Year's Eve programming. The show's expanded late-night coverage also delivered its strongest performance in eight years, with the post-midnight broadcast nearly doubling the previous year's audience.

The nationwide iHeartRadio simulcast reached 2 million listeners across nearly 150 iHeartRadio stations, a +9% increase over the previous year. Social engagement reached new heights as Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve and ABC generated more than 506 million video views across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and X during the five days surrounding the broadcast, a +165% increase year over year. 

The 2026 celebration brought together one of the most diverse lineups in franchise history, featuring performances from music legends, global superstars and breakout artists representing every genre.

SXSW, the largest cultural event in the United States, today announced that Penske Media Corporation has transitioned from a majority stakeholder to full owner. The move represents a seamless evolution of a multi-year strategic partnership built on shared ambition, strong financial growth, and international expansion. SXSW will remain headquartered in Austin, where its flagship Conference & Festivals and SXSW EDU will continue to take place. SXSW 2027 runs March 15–21, preceded by SXSW EDU, March 13–16.

The partnership began in 2021, when PMC invested in SXSW following the severe financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, providing critical capital that helped secure the event’s future. Over the past several years, PMC and SXSW have worked together to strengthen the company’s long-term foundation, expand opportunities for programming, partnerships, and community building, and grow its global presence in Europe. SXSW will continue to be led from Austin, with a focus on preserving the deep community relationships that have long defined the event.

Founded by Roland Swenson, Nick Barbaro, Louis Jay Meyers and Louis Black, SXSW has played a central role in Austin’s evolution as an international destination for music, film, technology and the creative industries. Under their leadership, SXSW created a new model for bringing different industries and communities together and established a global event that remains deeply connected to its hometown.

“It's been a great joy and honor to help build this company from the ground up,” said Nick Barbaro, SXSW co-founder. “We could never have done this anywhere but Austin, and thanks to the hard work and dedication of so many talented people who’ve cared deeply about its purpose over the years, SXSW continues to impact the lives of countless artists and innovators around the world. It’s been a great ride and we look forward to watching SXSW continue to grow in vibrant new ways while remaining focused on helping creative people achieve their goals.”  

"SXSW combines exceptional leadership and a proven playbook with a live event experience that is second to none." said Jay Penske, Chairman and CEO, Penske Media Corporation. “Premium live experiences are central to Penske Media’s future, and we are thrilled to increase our stake in SXSW, and provide the company with further backing and together write the most expansive chapter in its history."

The transaction reflects PMC’s continued investment in global live events that convene influential communities across entertainment, media, music, technology, fashion, art and culture. PMC’s portfolio of events and experiences already includes the Golden Globes, Latin Music Week, the Academy of Country Music Awards, the Billboard Music Awards, and New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, and over 315 additional live experiences produced and built by PMC brands including Billboard, Rolling Stone, Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, WWD and Sportico.

Since its founding in 1987, SXSW has grown from an Austin music event into an internationally recognized destination for discovery and connection across technology, film and television, music, education, comedy, culture and business. Each year, SXSW brings global creative and professional communities to Austin while providing a platform for the artists, entrepreneurs, innovators, and organizations that make the city distinctive.

Today, Rolling Stone announced that esteemed journalists Matt Bai and Katherine Eban will join the brand as it expands its coverage of national politics, public health, and the forces shaping American life. Bai will serve as National Affairs Columnist and Eban as National Investigative Correspondent, with both beginning their roles on January 1.

Bai, a veteran political columnist for The New York Times and The Washington Post, will write longform commentary and analysis on national affairs and conduct in-depth political interviews, offering deeper context on the forces shaping Washington. Eban, an award-winning investigative journalist and Vanity Fair special correspondent, will report at the intersection of public health, politics, and national security, bringing greater attention to issues that shape policy, institutions, and public life.

“Rolling Stone has always valued ambitious writing and fearless reporting,” said Sean Woods, Co-Editor-in-Chief. “Matt brings a rare clarity to the currents driving national affairs, and Katherine’s investigative work reaches into systems and stories that demand scrutiny. They both embody a kind of independent, go-where-the-facts-lead journalism that has always been part of Rolling Stone’s DNA. Their work aligns with our focus on longform storytelling, sharp analysis, and reporting that travels across formats, helping our audience understand not just what’s happening, but why it matters.”

“Matt and Katherine are two of the most insightful journalists working today,” said Julian Holguin, CEO of Rolling Stone. “Their work reflects the kind of depth, analysis, and investigative rigor we’re committed to growing across Rolling Stone. As audiences look for reporting that cuts through the noise and helps make sense of an increasingly complicated world, we’re investing in voices and coverage that do exactly that, with authority, clarity, and impact across platforms.”

“It's an incredible honor to join Rolling Stone,” Bai said. “Having grown up reading Hunter Thompson and Bill Greider, I have deep respect for the platform and am thrilled to contribute to its next chapter. We’re at a critically important moment for the country, and I look forward to trying to make sense of it for readers in a way that’s independent and unpredictable.”

“Through its deep dive investigations, Rolling Stone has long been ahead of the curve,” Eban said. “I am honored to join an outlet that is fearless in pursuit of the truth and is committed to holding power to account. The role of a free press in asking tough questions and following stories wherever they lead has never been more important.”

Matt Bai is a nationally recognized journalist, author, and screenwriter with more than two decades of experience covering American politics. He was a contributing columnist for The Washington Post and previously spent more than a decade at The New York Times, where he served as chief political writer for the Sunday Magazine and later as the paper’s national political columnist. Bai has covered seven presidential campaigns and is the author of two acclaimed books, including All the Truth Is Out, his examination of the Gary Hart scandal that was adapted into the 2018 film The Front Runner, which he co-wrote. Earlier in his career, Bai reported for The Boston Globe and Newsweek, wrote speeches for UNICEF, and held fellowships at Harvard, Stanford, the University of Chicago, and the Wilson Center.

Katherine Eban is an award-winning investigative journalist and bestselling author whose reporting spans pharmaceutical safety, national security, and public health. She is the author of Bottle of Lies, a New York Times bestseller that earned multiple awards, and Dangerous Doses, an acclaimed investigation into America’s drug supply chain. Her work has sparked policy changes and inspired film and television projects, including her Vanity Fair article “Rorschach and Awe,” which was made into the 2019 film The Report. Eban has reported internationally, received a Rhodes Scholarship and is an Andrew Carnegie fellow. Her work has been recognized most recently with a George Polk award for national reporting, as well by organizations including the Overseas Press Club, Investigative Reporters & Editors, the National Association of Science Writers and the Association of Health Care Journalists.

“Golden Eve” will air as a marquee event during Golden Week, a new dynamic week-long experience across Paramount platforms as well as celebratory kick-off events ahead of the 83rd Annual Golden Globes®, the first major award show of the season, airing live Sunday, January 11, 2026 and hosted by acclaimed Golden Globe, GRAMMY® and Emmy®-nominated comedian and actress Nikki Glaser.

DeMille Award recipient Viola Davis and Carol Burnett Award recipient Ted Danson, the 2026 edition evolves into “Golden Eve,” offering viewers an unprecedented insider’s look at the honorees' legacy, personal stories, and unforgettable Golden Globes moments. The exclusive special will feature curated career retrospectives, never-before-seen footage, and in-depth conversations with the honorees.

DeMille Award has been bestowed on 69 honorees drawn from Hollywood’s greatest and most iconic talents, including Walt Disney, Audrey Hepburn, Sidney Poitier, Judy Garland, Elizabeth Taylor, Robert Redford, Barbra Streisand, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and Oprah Winfrey.

This year, the event will once again bring together leading artists, creators, and executives who are shaping the future of Latin music and culture, while connecting them with fans around the world.

“Miami Beach is growing in its reputation nationally and internationally from events, businesses, and more. Billboard Latin Music Week is not just a part of it, but it's a partnership. We would not be the Miami Beach we are today if it wasn't for Latin Music Week,” said Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner. 

Leila Cobo, Chief Content Officer of Billboard Latin/Español, added, “Latin music is a global force, the fastest-growing genre in the U.S. and worldwide, now reaching a record $1.4 billion. As we celebrate 36 years of Latin Music Week, we’re proud to return to the historic Fillmore with our biggest event yet: 31 panels and over 100 artists and executives from across the globe.”
