Who’s performing the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show?
Bad Bunny, a three-time Grammy-winning Puerto Rican rapper, will headline the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show. The news was announced Sept. 28 during the “Sunday Night Football” game between the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers.
Bad Bunny − in a collaboration post with the NFL, Apple Music and Roc Nation − shared a video of himself sitting atop a goal post on a beach as his “Callaíta” plays in the background.
“Super Bowl LX. Bay Area. February 2026,” the post was captioned.
In a nod to his Puerto Rican heritage, Bad Bunny wore a pava, a traditional hat made from leaves of the Puerto Rican hat palm. “What I’m feeling goes beyond myself,” Bad Bunny said in a statement shared by the NFL. “This is for my people, my culture, and our history.”
“Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL,” the musician added, which translates to, “Go on and tell your grandma that we’ll be at the Super Bowl halftime show.”
On Sept. 28, rapper Jay-Z said in a statement he was “honored” to have Bad Bunny on “the world’s biggest stage.”
“What Benito has done and continues to do for Puerto Rico is truly inspiring,” he said.
