Are there any events similar to New Years where some specific countdown
time
is shown on TV?

Rocket launches, although typically not on live TV any more. More likely streamed (at least that's how I watch them). In the "post launch tracking" part, there's usually a display showing TAI/UTC along with various parameters (perigee, apogee, etc). I always wait until perigee is >100km before really believing it's successful.

But if you can get a feed from China or India, they're pretty big on publicizing their space program, so they might have live news feeds.
