From the Spanish WIKI - see the highlighted phrase

Bola de Times Square

En 1907 se celebró el primer fin de año en el que bajó la Bola de Fin de Año en Times Square, señalando el inició del año 1908. Desde ese año se ha bajado la bola del Año Nuevo. Cada fin de año, más de un millón de personas de todo el mundo presencian la bajada de la bola de Times Square.

Literally the descent / lowering / drop / fall of the ball of Times Square

Look up the verb bajar and the noun bajada in the SD dictionary for more info

The ball itself is just called "la bola de Times Square."

You can find information like this yourself by first finding the relevant Wiki article in English. Then, on the left hand side of the screen you will find links to articles written in many different languages. Click on Español. Even if you are a beginner in Spanish, you will be able to find the answer quite often because there are so many words in Spanish and English that are similar.
