Yes, there is effectively a “West Coast ball drop,” but it works a bit differently from the classic New York Times Square moment.

East vs. West countdowns

  • The iconic Times Square Ball in New York drops at midnight Eastern time and is broadcast across the U.S., including the West Coast.
  • On TV in Pacific time, national New Year’s Eve shows usually replay or time‑shift that same Times Square ball drop so West Coast viewers get a midnight countdown, even though the physical ball is in New York.

Actual West Coast events

  • Major West Coast cities (Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, etc.) host their own big New Year’s Eve celebrations, often with fireworks, projections, or countdown graphics rather than a literal mechanical “ball” like Times Square.
  • In Los Angeles, for example, Grand Park’s NYE celebration is billed as one of the West Coast’s largest free New Year’s events, with a big countdown show tailored to Pacific time.

On TV: what you’ll see

  • Network specials such as “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” have separate West Coast segments and performers, while still centering the official ball drop footage from New York for the actual ball moment.
  • So if you’re asking “is there a West Coast ball drop like New York’s?”, the answer is: there are West Coast countdown shows and big outdoor parties, but the famous dropping ball is still the Times Square one, rebroadcast for West Coast midnight.

TL;DR:

  • No unique, equally famous physical “West Coast ball” like Times Square’s.
  • Yes to West‑Coast‑timed TV countdowns and big city celebrations, often using the New York ball footage plus local festivities.
