CNN anchors Dana Bash and Boris Sanchez are onboard to serve as the night’s hosts from D.C., alongside correspondents Victor Blackwell and Sara Sidner from San Diego.
The show will follow last year’s special, which was led by Shania Twain, Alanis Morissette, Post Malone and Demi Lovato. Brad Paisley, Coi Leray, Ludacris, The All-American Rejects, Darius Rucker, Duran Duran, Flo Rida, Leon Bridges, Sheryl Crow, Smash Mouth and The Plain White T’s also rang in the 2023 festivities, which similarly featured live firework shows from around the U.S. and a demonstration from the Air Force Band.
