Right then. Let’s talk about how the Jonas Brothers are planning to wind up 2025 and ring in the new year.
The Jonas Brothers live two-hour New Year’s Eve concert is happening on December 31st at the Jonas Brothers Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Oh, and before you start opening Skyscanner in a panic about flight prices and hotels: here’s the brilliant bit. You don’t have to go anywhere. The whole whack is streaming in real time on Samsung TV Plus starting at 10 p.m. ET.

Yeah, you read that right. Free telly. No subscription. It’s just you, your sofa, and Kevin, Joe and Nick slaying bangers while you’re sipping pre-midnight Prosecco.
Twenty Years of Brothers Being Brothers
So here’s what is so special about this gig. The Jonas Brothers’ New Year’s Eve 2025 concert isn’t your average gig. It’s the grand finale of their Greetings From Your Hometown Tour, which ended on December 22nd. The tour was part of a 20-year celebration for these three strapping lads from New Jersey who began making music together.
When they announced the New Year’s Eve special in November, they posted saying they “couldn’t imagine closing out 2025 anywhere else” but with their fans.
The tour was massive. Started at MetLife Stadium in August. First time they’d ever headlined that venue. Then they spent months hitting everywhere from Albuquerque to Detroit.
My mate Sarah went to the Detroit show and said it was absolutely brilliant. Three hours of non-stop hits, costume changes, the works.

What You’re Actually Getting
So what can you expect? Based on their recent tour, quite a lot.
The Jonas Brothers setlist typically runs about two and a half hours. They’ve been mixing old classics with new stuff from their seventh album, Greetings From Your Hometown. You’ll get “S.O.S.” Obviously. “Burnin’ Up.” “Lovebug.” All the bangers that made you fancy them back in 2008.
Each brother does solo bits, too. Nick performs songs from his solo career. Joe brings out DNCE tracks like “Cake by the Ocean.” Kevin does his thing as well.
They’ve also been doing this acoustic segment where fans request songs. At one show, they played “Kids of the Future” for the first time since 2008. At another, a little girl asked for a “Toothbrush” for her birthday, and they played with it.
The Jonas Brothers’ Samsung TV broadcast promises early hits, fan favourites, and new album tracks. Plus, the actual countdown to midnight.
Why Florida, Though?
The Jonas Brothers are playing at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla., for a reason. South Florida is a hotspot for major New Year’s Eve celebrations. The weather’s decent. And the Hard Rock venue can handle the production.
Tickets went on sale in November, running about $170 if you wanted to be there in person. But the Samsung TV Plus stream is free. No ticket needed. Only straight-up Jonas Brothers content coming at your living room while you sit in your pyjamas.
The broadcast begins at 10 p.m. Eastern Time. That’s 7 p.m. on the West Coast. 3 a.m. in the UK if you’re feeling dedicated.
The Nostalgia Factor
Look, there’s something proper lovely about the Jonas Brothers still being at it 20 years on. They split up in 2013. Went their separate ways. Then in 2019, they reunited for “Sucker”, and it was as if they had never been gone. This New Year’s Eve show is honouring all of it.
This New Year’s Eve show is celebrating all of it. The Disney Channel days. The Camp Rock era. The split. The reunion. It’s two decades of musical history packed into one night.
Nick told Ticketmaster that getting to embrace music from their solo work makes this tour special. They’re not just being the Jonas Brothers. They’re Kevin, Joe, and Nick, who happen to be brothers.
How to Actually Watch It
Samsung TV Plus. It’s a free streaming service that comes built in to many Samsung smart TVs manufactured after 2016. If you’ve got a Samsung telly, then you can already use it.
Don’t have a Samsung TV? You can check out Samsung TV Plus through their website on any browser, or you can download the app to your phone or tablet.
The Jonas Brothers Samsung TV dates show the concert is only available on their own platform. Samsung is the one with the rights, and they’re making it free to watch.
What Comes After Midnight
One element they have been a little reticent to explain is what happens when the clock strikes 12. Judging by their tour, anything is possible. They’ve had the D.J. Marshmello perform in between sets. Demi Lovato at MetLife Stadium. Their whole family come onstage for certain songs.
For New Year’s Eve, who knows? Maybe they’ll bring out someone big. Maybe it’ll just be the three of them and confetti cannons.

Should You Watch?
If you are a Jonas Brothers fan, this is a no-brainer. A free concert on New Year’s Eve? Sorted. No interest in the Jonas Brothers, but no New Year’s Eve plans? Might as well give it a go. Better than watching the same tired Times Square coverage you’ve seen a million times.
The Jonas Brothers live two-hour New Year’s Eve concert is basically a greatest hits package wrapped up in a New Year’s celebration. Two hours of music from three brothers who’ve been doing this since they were kids. Free streaming. No fuss.
Sometimes the best NYE plan is the simplest one. Sofa. Snacks. Jonas Brothers. Midnight countdown. New year. Sorted.
See you in 2026, then. Or at least the Jonas Brothers will.
