Super Bowl 2026 Shocker! Puth, Carlile, Jones Tapped for Pregame Extravaganza

The National Football League (NFL) has officially unveiled the star-studded entertainment lineup for Super Bowl LX, set to take place on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. This highly anticipated event will feature a diverse array of musical talents for both the pregame ceremonies and the celebrated Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show.
Leading the pregame festivities, acclaimed singer-songwriter Charlie Puth is slated to perform the national anthem, while multi-Grammy-winning artist Brandi Carlile will deliver a rendition of “America the Beautiful.” Adding to the powerful opening, Coco Jones will grace the stage to perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”
The NFL and Roc Nation are emphasizing inclusivity with significant American Sign Language (ASL) performances integrated throughout the day. Fred Beam will provide ASL interpretations for the national anthem and “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” with Julian Ortiz performing “America the Beautiful” in ASL. A groundbreaking element for Super Bowl LX is the multilingual signing program for Bad Bunny’s halftime show, which will incorporate Puerto Rican Sign Language, led by Celimar Rivera Cosme. All signed performances for the 2026 Super Bowl are collaborative efforts with Alexis Kashar of LOVE SIGN and Howard Rosenblum of Deaf Equality, underscoring a commitment to accessibility and diverse representation.
Jon Barker, NFL senior VP of global event production, expressed enthusiasm for the lineup, stating, “Super Bowl Sunday is the world’s biggest entertainment stage, and we’re proud to spotlight artists who embody the very best of music and culture.”Desiree Perez, CEO of Roc Nation, echoed this sentiment, adding, “Charlie, Brandi, and Coco are generational talents, and we are honored to have them — alongside our extraordinary deaf performers — on Super Bowl LX’s world stage. This moment embodies the very best of culture, live performance, and our country, perfectly kicking off game day.” The NFL made this announcement on Sunday, November 30.
Bad Bunny is confirmed as the headliner for the 2026 Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show. This marks the seventh consecutive year that Roc Nation will program the halftime show, serving as executive producers alongside Jesse Collins, with production by DPS and direction by Hamish Hamilton. Roc Nation also continues its role as the strategic entertainment advisor for the show, while Apple Music returns for its fourth year as the presenting sponsor. Fans can catch all the action live on NBC, Telemundo, and Peacock.
