Get ready for Super Bunny Bowl 2026!
Bad Bunny will be headlining the next halftime show, set to kick off Feb. 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., he announced via Instagram Sunday.
The Reggaeton superstar, 31, first shared the exciting news with a video of him sitting on top of a goal post that was set to his hit song “Callaita.” He captioned the post, “Super Bowl LX. Bay Area. February 2026. #AppleMusicHalftime.”
Bad Bunny added in a press release obtained by Page Six, “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.”
He added in Spanish, “Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL,” which translates to, “Go and tell your grandmother, that we are the halftime show of the super bowl.”
Bad Bunny is fresh off concluding his sold-out residency in Puerto Rico, which recently made history as the most-watched Amazon Music livestream ever, per Rolling Stone.
The Grammy winner is also no stranger to the Super Bowl stage. He was a special guest when Shakira and Jennifer Lopez co-headlined the 2020 halftime show in Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium.
He performed at the time his chart-topping track “I Like It” and a mashup of “Chantaje” with “Callaita” with Shakira, 48. J Balvin also made a guest appearance during the sizzling performance.
The NFL and Apple Music cryptically teased earlier on Sunday afternoon via Instagram, “Tune into Sunday Night Football halftime for a big announcement” with a football, apple and shushing face emoji.
Leading up to the announcement, fans speculated that Taylor Swift would hit the stage for Super Bowl LX — especially after the singer bought back her masters in May and since her fiancé is Travis Kelce.
The tight end’s team, the Kansas City Chiefs, have made it to the championship game for the past three years in a row and many Swifties have been hoping for a storybook end to the current NFL season.
However, the pop superstar has been keeping a lower profile at Chiefs games recently amid rumblings that she has had serious threats made to her life and therefore has security concerns, per the Daily Mail.
Other names in the running have been Miley Cyrus and Adele, the latter of which sources exclusively confirmed to Page Six had been “in talks” for the halftime show.
The Grammy winner’s fiancé is Rich Paul, one of sports’ biggest agents, and Adele has attended the Super Bowl before as a fan, which further fueled the speculation.
Fans also speculated that Metallica would be considered given the rock band’s roots in San Francisco.
Drummer Lars Ulrich recently told Howard Stern, “I would f–king love to do it.”
Recent past performers include Kendrick Lamar (2025), Usher (2024), Rihanna (2023) and Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Lamar (2022) and The Weeknd (2021).
Other artists and bands who have received the honor include Aerosmith, Katy Perry, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lady Gaga, Prince, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Janet Jackson, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and The Rolling Stones.
Super Bowl LX, set to kick off next February, will be hosted by the San Francisco Bay Area.
The event will mark the third time the Bay Area has played host to an NFL Championship Game — and the second to take place at Levi’s Stadium.
The venue, home of the San Francisco 49ers, hosted Super 50 (with the Denver Broncos defeating the Carolina Panthers, 24-10) in 2016.
That year’s halftime show was headlined by Coldplay, featuring special guests Beyoncé and Bruno Mars.
