Nile Rodgers and Chic will follow in the footsteps of the likes of Robbie Williams, Queen and more by bringing in 2018 on BBC One.

Set to perform both before and after the midnight fireworks display, the appointment follows the hitmaker’s recent BBC Four documentary series How to Make It in the Music Business, which has won plaudits among the industry tastemakers.

Of the set, Rodgers says “It’s been an incredible year for Chic in the UK…. From playing in to 200,000 plus people at Glastonbury to our recent sold out arena shows in London and Liverpool. This is a great way to end our 40th year in a spectacular fashion and kick off a new year that will start with the release of the first new Chic music in years and the new album. Good Times are coming in 2018!”.
