Just moments before the announcement, Bad Bunny took to X to say that he had one show planned for the United States.


Puerto Rican pop star Bad Bunny has been tapped to perform at the 2026 Super Bowl LX Halftime Show, signalling yet another major milestone in his already meteoric year. The event will take place on February 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, CA.

 

The National Football League, Apple Music and Roc Nation made the announcement during halftime of Sunday night's game between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys.

 

"What I'm feeling goes beyond myself," said Bad Bunny in a statement.

 

"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," added the 31-year-old artist.

 

Just moments before the announcement, Bad Bunny took to X to say that he had one show planned for the United States.

 

“I've been thinking about it these days, and after discussing it with my team, I think I'll do just one date in the United States," he wrote.

 

He was referring to his upcoming “Debi Tirar Mas Fotos World Tour”, which kicks off on December 5 in Costa Rica and heads to Mexico, Spain and England before wrapping in Italy on July 17.

The rapper-singer, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, previously stated that he did not book gigs in the United States due to fear of ICE raids. 

 

This marks the first time that the Puerto Rican musician has graced the Super Bowl stage. He is coming off a red-hot year that began with the release of his seventh album, "Debi Tirar Mas Fotos", in January, serving as an homage to his native land. He then staged a 30-date residency at San Juan's Jose Miguel Agrelot Coliseum that started in July and recently wrapped on September 20.

 

"What Benito has done and continues to do for Puerto Rico is truly inspiring," said Roc Nation founder Jay-Z in a statement. His company has partnered with the NFL since 2019 to book the Super Bowl Halftime Show. "We are honoured to have him on the world's biggest stage."
