Bad Bunny Set to Star in 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Performance

## Bad Bunny to Headline the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show

The highly anticipated 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show will be led by none other than Bad Bunny. The announcement came during a recent game between the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys, generating significant excitement among fans.

### What Bad Bunny Had to Say

In a heartfelt statement, Bad Bunny expressed his emotions about this milestone. “What I’m 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. Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL,” he shared.

Jay-Z’s Roc Nation is responsible for curating this year’s lineup, highlighting the influence of culture in the selection process.

### Super Bowl Details

The Super Bowl LX Halftime Show is scheduled at San Francisco’s Levi’s Stadium on February 8th. With this, Bad Bunny will need to make his way to the U.S. following his world tour, which notably omits the U.S. due to various concerns.

Recently, Bad Bunny clarified that his absence from U.S. shows was influenced by the socio-political climate and recent deportations targeting the Latino community. “There were many reasons why I didn’t show up in the U.S., and none of them were out of hate,” he explained.

### Reflecting on Past Performances

Bad Bunny’s performance will follow Kendrick Lamar, who captivated audiences with his remarkable show at the previous Super Bowl. However, Kendrick’s set faced criticism, leading to numerous complaints filed after the event.

Following the Super Bowl, Bad Bunny will embark on a massive tour in Australia, marking his debut performances in the country.

### Other Rumored Performers

Several artists have been speculated as possible headliners for next year’s halftime show. During an interview on *The Howard Stern Show*, Metallica’s drummer Lars Ulrich expressed a willingness to perform if given the opportunity.

“First of all, we would do it,” he stated. “To do it in San Francisco would be a dream come true.”

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell also mentioned Taylor Swift, welcoming her to perform at any time. He remarked, “We would always love to have Taylor play,” although he remained noncommittal when asked about specific plans.
