The halftime show is an esteemed tradition passed down through the decades with some of the biggest artists in music history earning their moment in the spotlight.
Halftime entertainment draws in a sprawling audience who can't identify their touchdowns from their tries, and that's what makes it so great.
The entertainment offering at Super Bowl LX is shaping up to be another blockbuster for those in the UK ready to sacrifice their body clocks for the privilege.
Radio Times brings you everything you need to know about the Super Bowl halftime performers.
Who is performing in the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show?
The headline act for the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show is Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny.
He was announced to lead the performance back in September 2024, following in the footsteps of Kendrick Lamar, Usher and Rihanna, who have all played the coveted slot in recent years.
The 31-year-old has been the most-streamed artist on Spotify in four of the last six years, halted only by Taylor Swift in 2023 and 2024.
Bad Bunny is no stranger to the halftime show after previously performing as a special guest during Jennifer Lopez and Shakira's set in 2020, dressed from head to toe in silver.
'Silver man' became an internet meme at the time, so it's satisfying to see his full ascension to the top billing.
Who is rumoured to perform in the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show with Bad Bunny?
Bad Bunny is expected to be joined by a host of guests for the show.
The hottest rumour suggests Cardi B will perform alongside Bad Bunny on the night for their 2018 hit I Like It. It helps that she will already be in attendance to support her boyfriend, Stefon Diggs, who plays for the New England Patriots.
J Balvin, Rosalia and Ricky Martin have all been tipped to feature but nothing has been confirmed.
