Everyone Performing at 2026 Super Bowl: Bad Bunny and More

The excitement for the Super Bowl LX 2026 is hitting a fever pitch after three new pre-show performers were announced.

In December 2025, the NFL announced that Charlie Puth will be singing the national anthem ahead of the game, while Brandi Carlile will perform “America the Beautiful.” Coco Jones is also set to sing a performance of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” prior to the monumental matchup.

“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,” Jon Barker, senior vice president of global event production for the NFL, shared in a statement. “These artists bring a distinct voice to the moment, helping set the tone for a day that will captivate fans around the world.”

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny is set to take the stage for the iconic halftime show.

“What I’m feeling goes beyond myself,” Bad Bunny said in a statement in September 2025 after he was announced as the Super Bowl halftime performer. “It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown … this is for my people, my culture and our history. Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL.”

Bad Bunny, Puth, Carlile and Jones will be joined by American Sign Language performers Fred Beam and Julian Ortiz, along with Puerto Rican Sign Language performer Celimar Rivera Cosme.

Bad Bunny

In September 2025, the NFL revealed that Bad Bunny would be headlining the Super Bowl LX Halftime Show. The rapper said in a statement that what he is “feeling goes beyond myself.”

“It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown … this is for my people, my culture and our history,” he said at the time. “Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL.”

While Bad Bunny’s fans were excited by the news, some conservative commenters complained that the rapper was not an “American” and a singer who performs almost entirely in Spanish. (Bad Bunny is from Puerto Rico, a territory of the United States. Puerto Ricans are American citizens.)

Bad Bunny addressed the controversy during his Saturday Night Live monologue in October 2025.

“You may not know this, but I’m doing the Super Bowl halftime show. I’m very happy and I think everyone is happy about it. Even Fox News,” he joked. “Really, I’m very excited to be doing the Super Bowl and I know people all around the world who love my music are also happy.”
