Adele in Talks for 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show, Reports Say

The decision remains unannounced under Roc Nation's selection process.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report that Adele has been approached and is in discussions to headline Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara in February 2026.
  • No performer has been officially booked, and the selection rests with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation in partnership with the NFL, which typically reveals the headliner in September.
  • Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus are also being floated as contenders, according to the same reports.
  • NFL commissioner Roger Goodell recently described Swift as "welcome at any time" and "a maybe" on NBC’s Today, offering no confirmation.
  • Coverage notes Adele’s 2016 remark that she declined a past invite, which the NFL and Pepsi said was not a formal offer, and reminds that halftime acts are not directly paid but often see significant exposure gains.
