CBC 2000 Today was a CBC News' special programming covering the new millennium celebrations around the world from December 31, 1999, into January 1, 2000, as part of the 2000 Today programming in Canada. Peter Mansbridge anchored the 25 and a half hours of broadcast from the Canadian Broadcasting Centre in Toronto. CBC temporarily converted the atrium into a type of "Millennium time studios" that included a desk, where a standing Mansbridge spent most of his time, a news studio, where Mansbridge would interview guests, and a makeshift Canadian Broadcasting Centre where CBC News staffers would follow the latest developments.
