When is the Super Bowl Half-Time Show 2026? UK time for Bad Bunny perfomance, how to watch, expected songs and guest stars - will Lady Gaga appear?
It’s looking like it’ll be a spectacular show.
On Sunday, February 8, millions of American Football fans will watch the New England Patriots take on the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, in California.
But even people with little interest in sport will be tuning in to see the spectacular half-time show – this year being headlined by superstar Bad Bunny.
It will be the latest in a string of annual shows that receive global attention, often providing talking points and meme fodder (remember Katy Perry’s dancing shark?).
Here's everything you need to know about the show, including what famous faces might be joining Mr Bunny on stage.
What time will the half-time show be on at in the UK?
The Super Bowl game kicks off at 11.30pm UK time.
A game of American Football is split into four quarters of 15 minutes, but a typical game takes between 2-3 hours to complete, so expect the half-time show to take place at some point between 12.30am and 1am on Monday morning (February 9).
How to watch the half-time show in the UK?
The Super Bowl will be broadcast for free on Channel 5 this year, as well as on Sky Sports. Coverage will start on Sunday, February 8, at 10.30pm on Channel 5, with Dermot O'Leary and Sam Quek hosting.
What songs will Bad Bunny play?
The half-time setlist is always a closely-gaurded secret, but the bookies reckon they know which parts of his back catalogue Bad Bunny will be dipping into - expecting a total of eight or nine songs to be performed.
The 10 songs most likely to make an appearance, in order of likelihood, are:
- Baile INoLVIDABLE
- Titi Me Pregunto
- DtMF
- NUEVAYoL
- Monaco
- Diles
- EoO
- CAFe CON RON
- El Apagon
- Soy Peor
- Me Porto Bonito
Favourite to open the set is Titi Me Pregunto and favourite to close is EoO.
What guests will there be?
The Super Bowl half-time show often features some very famous special guests. In 2014 Bruno Mars welcomed The Red Hot Chili Peppers on stage, Beyonce got Destiny’s Child back together for her 2013 set, while Sting made a surprise appearance with Shania Twain in 2003.
This year Cardi B is hot favourite to take a guest slot. Other stars tipped to join Bad Bunny on stage are Ricky Martin, J Balvin, Rauw Alejandro, Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, Karol G, Jhayco and Rosalia.
