The NFL has revealed its lineup for the 2026 Super Bowl, featuring Coco Jones, Charlie Puth, and Brandi Carlile to perform before the match begins. Bad Bunny is slated to lead the halftime entertainment. The event, Super Bowl LX, will be held on February 8, 2026.

Charlie Puth will deliver the national anthem, “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Coco Jones will take the stage with “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” also known as the Black national anthem. Brandi Carlile is set to perform “America the Beautiful” as the pregame festivities kick off.

Desiree Perez, CEO of Roc Nation, praised the trio as “generational talents” and expressed the NFL's pride in showcasing such artists. She emphasized that the performances reflect the essence of American culture and pride through live music.

In a notable update, the NFL will feature American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters throughout the event. Fred Beam will interpret both “The Star-Spangled Banner” and “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” while Julian Ortiz will sign “America the Beautiful.” Additionally, this year's halftime show will introduce multilingual signing, with Celimar Rivera Cosme using Puerto Rican Sign Language during Bad Bunny’s set.

Charlie Puth celebrated the announcement by sharing a humorous video on social media. In the post, he humorously narrated the challenges of singing the national anthem to a group of football players and ended on a playful note as they spontaneously chanted, “Whose house? Our house!”

The 2026 Super Bowl promises a vibrant and diverse lineup of pregame performances. With these renowned artists, professional ASL interpreters, and Bad Bunny headlining the halftime show, attendees can look forward to an unforgettable experience.
