The National Football League has unveiled the musical talents slated to perform at the upcoming Super Bowl LX, promising a diverse and captivating entertainment spectacle. Charlie Puth has been selected to perform the national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner," setting a patriotic tone for the event. Brandi Carlile will enchant audiences with her rendition of "America the Beautiful," while Coco Jones is scheduled to perform "Lift Every Voice and Sing." Inclusivity will also be a key feature, with Fred Beam and Julian Ortiz providing American Sign Language interpretations for these pregame performances.
Scheduled for Sunday, February 8, 2026, Super Bowl LX will take place at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and will be broadcast live on Fox. This year's event is notable for featuring Bad Bunny as the headliner for the halftime show, making it the first time a multilingual performance will grace this prestigious stage. Celimar Rivera Cosme will offer Puerto Rican Sign Language interpretation during the halftime show, adding another layer of cultural representation. This highly anticipated performance comes just over a year after the release of Bad Bunny's latest album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, ensuring a fresh and exciting show for fans.
Reflecting on previous years, the Super Bowl has consistently delivered memorable musical moments. Last year's Super Bowl featured an unforgettable halftime show by Kendrick Lamar, which included his now-iconic grin during "Not Like Us" and special appearances by SZA and Serena Williams. The pre-game festivities for that event included Jon Batiste's rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner," with Trombone Shorty and Lauren Daigle performing "America the Beautiful," underscoring the tradition of bringing together top musical acts for this grand sporting occasion.
The Super Bowl continues to evolve as a global platform for both sports and entertainment, showcasing a commitment to diverse talent and cultural representation. These musical selections not only highlight the artistic excellence of the chosen performers but also reflect a broader appreciation for varied musical genres and inclusive presentations. The upcoming Super Bowl LX is poised to be a landmark event, celebrating unity and the power of music to bring people together.
