Bad Bunny at Super Bowl LX Halftime Show

Bad Bunny is set to make history on Sunday, February 8, 2026, as the first solo Latin male artist to headline the Super Bowl halftime show. The Puerto Rican superstar will perform at Levi’s Stadium during Super Bowl LX, reaching over 100 million viewers worldwide.

Fresh from a Grammy win for Album of the Year with Debí Tirar Más Fotos, Bad Bunny has transformed from a SoundCloud artist in 2016 to one of the most-streamed musicians globally. His 2025 album alone achieved 19.8 billion streams and included 17 tracks that dominated the charts.

While the official Super Bowl setlist remains a mystery, several songs are expected to define his performance. “BAILE INOLVIDABLE” is likely the closer, an anthem celebrating Puerto Rican culture and personal love stories. “DtMF” (Debí Tirar Más Fotos) reflects nostalgia, family, and cultural pride, while “I Like It” remains Bad Bunny’s only Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit, introducing many American audiences to his music.

Other essential tracks include “TITÍ ME PREGUNTÓ”, a humorous take on family pressure in love, and “NUEVAYOL”, a reflective tribute to Puerto Rican migrants and the diaspora experience. These songs showcase a blend of reggaeton, trap, salsa, and cultural storytelling.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl show emphasizes Spanish-language performance, marking a shift in American entertainment. The NFL has highlighted the growing importance of the U.S. Latino audience, which now exceeds 70 million people, as a key factor in the decision.

Special guests remain unconfirmed, but speculation includes collaborations with Cardi B, El Gran Combo, or Marc Anthony, potentially blending multiple generations of Latin music.

Ultimately, Bad Bunny’s halftime performance promises more than a musical show. It is a cultural statement, celebrating Latin music, heritage, and global influence, while bringing Spanish-language artistry to one of the world’s largest stages.

Fans worldwide will tune in Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock, witnessing a performance that combines high energy, storytelling, and a celebration of Latino culture.
