Bad Bunny to Headline Super Bowl LX Halftime Show in Santa Clara

The Apple Music-backed production from Roc Nation marks his lone U.S. date after he opted to skip mainland tour stops over ICE concerns.

Overview

  • The NFL confirmed the booking during Sunday Night Football, with Apple Music returning as sponsor for the fourth year.
  • Super Bowl LX is set for February 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium, with Jesse Collins as executive producer and Hamish Hamilton directing.
  • Bad Bunny said the performance is “for my people, my culture, and our history,” and posted that he would do “just one date in the United States.”
  • The Puerto Rican star previously appeared as a guest during the 2020 halftime show, and his latest tour plan excludes the mainland U.S. after voicing concerns about potential ICE presence at concerts.
  • The announcement drew praise from figures including Jay‑Z and California officials as well as backlash from conservative commentators and racist posts on social media.
