New Year Stream Overlays: Dress Your Channel for the Season
Fireworks, countdown energy and a fresh-start glow - the perfect backdrop for a countdown stream and a fresh-start rebrand.
Why run a New Year overlay
Seasonal overlays are the perfect backdrop for a countdown stream and a fresh-start rebrand. Swap your look for the month, then switch your yearly set back - viewers notice the effort, and a channel that feels current to the calendar reads as active and cared-for.
Each New Year pack is still a complete kit: animated Starting Soon, BRB, Ending and Offline screens, a webcam frame, alerts and panels - all matched, all drop-in ready. Browse the seasonal and stream collections.

Timing it right
Grab your seasonal look ahead of the season - New Year streams look their best when the overlay is up before everyone else's. Setup is minutes: drop the screens into OBS as looping Media Sources and go live. Full walkthrough: how to add an overlay to OBS.
FAQ
