Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile and Coco Jones Set for 2026 Super Bowl Pregame Performances
The NFL has officially revealed the star-studded pregame entertainment lineup for Super Bowl LX, taking place on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. This year’s opening ceremonies bring together three powerhouse artists—Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile, and Coco Jones—ahead of Bad Bunny’s Apple Music Halftime Show, making the 2026 edition one of the most anticipated in recent years.
Charlie Puth to Perform the National Anthem
Hitmaker Charlie Puth, known for chart-toppers like Attention, We Don’t Talk Anymore, and See You Again, will take on one of the nation’s most iconic musical moments: the National Anthem.
Puth’s reputation for flawless live vocals and emotional delivery has fans and critics buzzing about what could become one of the most memorable anthem performances in Super Bowl history. His performance continues the tradition of spotlighting globally recognized talent on one of the world’s most-watched broadcasts.
Brandi Carlile to Sing “America the Beautiful”
Nine-time Grammy winner Brandi Carlile will bring her signature Americana sound to “America the Beautiful.”
Carlile, celebrated for her powerful storytelling and cross-genre influence in folk, rock, and country, joins a long list of acclaimed artists who have delivered this patriotic song before kickoff. Her participation further highlights the NFL’s commitment to showcasing diverse musical voices that reflect American culture.
Coco Jones to Deliver “Lift Every Voice and Sing”
R&B star and rising actress Coco Jones is set to perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” often referred to as the Black national anthem.
Jones’ breakout in recent years—with her Grammy-winning single “ICU” and role on Bel-Air—positions her as an exciting addition to the Super Bowl LX lineup. Her soulful vocal style and cultural impact make her performance a meaningful moment for millions of viewers.
Bad Bunny Headlines the 2026 Apple Music Halftime Show
While pregame performances kick off the celebration, the global spotlight will shift to Bad Bunny, who leads the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show.
Bad Bunny’s set marks a historic moment for Latin music, continuing his streak as one of the world’s most influential artists. This also marks the seventh consecutive year that Roc Nation has served as strategic entertainment advisor and co-producer for the halftime show.
Groundbreaking ASL Performances Expand Accessibility
The NFL also announced a major step forward in inclusivity: American Sign Language (ASL) performances will accompany every major segment of the pregame and halftime shows.
- Fred Beam will sign both the National Anthem and “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”
- Julian Ortiz will sign “America the Beautiful.”
- For the first time ever, the halftime show will include a multilingual signing program, featuring Puerto Rican Sign Language, led by Celimar Rivera Cosme.
These efforts were developed in partnership with Alexis Kashar of LOVE SIGN and Howard Rosenblum of Deaf Equality, solidifying the NFL’s initiative to make the Super Bowl more accessible than ever.
Roc Nation and Apple Music Continue Their Super Bowl Legacy
The 2026 Super Bowl marks the seven-year partnership between the NFL and Roc Nation, who continues to shape the cultural direction of both the pregame and halftime experiences.
Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez praised the lineup, calling Puth, Carlile, and Jones “generational talents,” and highlighted the importance of showcasing diverse artistic voices on the world’s biggest stage.
This year also marks the fourth consecutive year that Apple Music serves as presenting sponsor, underscoring the brand’s expanding influence in live entertainment.
