In 2026, Levi’s Stadium in the Bay Area will host the Super Bowl, one of the biggest sporting events in the United States each year, which garners millions of viewers. The iconic halftime show will feature Bad Bunny, who was recently crowned Spotify’s most listened-to artist of 2025. Now that fans are eagerly awaiting the big game, organizers have released the pre-game lineup for 2026.
Singer-songwriter Charlie Puth is set to perform the national anthem before kickoff. Puth is known for his hits “We Don’t Talk Anymore” and “See You Again,” and he has been nominated for multiple Grammys.
Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile will perform “America the Beautiful.” Carlile has won an impressive 11 Grammys throughout her career, and her music has encompassed various genres, including folk, rock, and alternative.
Finally, Coco Jones, a breakout R&B star, will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” Jones is known for his hit song “ICU” and has been nominated for 8 Grammys, winning the coveted award in 2024 for Best R&B Performance.
“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,” said Jon Barker, senior vice president of global event production for the NFL. “Beyond the game itself, the Super Bowl is a global celebration. These artists bring a distinct voice to the moment, helping set the tone for a day that will captivate fans around the world.”
Ahead of the game, San Franciscans can also expect two major concerts before the Super Bowl. Sting is set to perform at the Palace of Fine Arts on Friday, February 6, and The Killers will take the stage on Saturday, February 7. Unsurprisingly, tickets aren’t cheap, starting at $950. That following Sunday, two teams will battle it out for the title at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
