"For the ninth time in its 118-year history, the globe that ushers in the new year for millions of people will sparkle in a brand-new design-this time with a little Irish magic. After a two-year hiatus, Waterford has returned as the official crystal partner of the Times Square Ball, unveiling the Infinite Edition , a design that trades last year's triangles for 5,280 handcrafted circular crystals in three sizes."
"When it reopens this winter as a year-round destination, it will house a multi-story candy emporium, wedding chapel ( ) and an experience dubbed "The Premium Ball Experience," where visitors can do something no one's ever done before: touch the actual New Year's Eve Ball. That "Premium Ball Experience" even lets guests swap one of the 2025 crystals for a 2026 crystal,"
"Each piece reflects the theme "Infinite Joy, Infinite Light, Infinite Beginnings." "Through the brilliance of crystal craftsmanship, we are proud to help shape a moment that unites millions in celebration and optimism for the future," said Bentley Hardwick, Waterford's global head, in an official statement. "The collaboration will allow us to create a truly unique and unforgettable experience," said Michael Phillips, president of Jamestown, which owns One Times Square, in an official statement."
