Bad Bunny is headlining the Super Bowl LX halftime show in 2026. He makes history as one of the biggest Latin artists to ever perform on the NFL stage.

Apple Music announced on Monday that the Puerto Rican musician will grace the stage on Feb. 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

"@badbunnypr is bringing Puerto Rico to the world's biggest stage," they wrote.

In a statement, Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Ocasio, dedicated the moment to his inspirations. 

"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 touchdown," he said.

"This is for my people, my culture, and our history. Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL," he continued.

Last year, Kendrick Lamar performed with appearances from SZA, Samuel L. Jackson, Serena Williams, and Mustard.

Known as the "King of Latin Trap," Bad Bunny is famous for hits such as Safaera, Maldita Pobreza, and La Romana.

He has won three Grammy Awards, eleven Latin Grammy Awards, eight Billboard Music Awards.
