When is the Super Bowl Half-Time Show 2025? UK time for Kendrick Lamar perfomance, how to watch, expected songs and guests

If the Kansas City Chiefs win they’ll become the first side in history to win a hat-trick of consecutive titles, as Taylor Swift cheers on boyfriend Travis Kelce.

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 rapper Kendrick Lamar.

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 her 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.

How to watch the half-time show in the UK?

The Super Bowl will be broadcast for free on ITV1 and ITVX this year, as well as on Sky Sports. Coverage will start on Sunday, February 12, at 10.45pm.

What songs will Kendrick Lamar play?

The half-time setlist is always a closely-gaurded secret, but the bookies reckon they know which parts of her back catalogue Kendrick will be dipping into - expecting a total of eight or nine songs to be performed.

The 10 songs most likely to make an appearance are Humble, Not Like Us, Squabble Up, King Kunta, A.D.H.D., DNA, All The Stars, Saviour, Luther and Gloria.

Favourite to open the set is Humble and favourite to close is Not Like Us.

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 Baby Keem is hot favourite to take a guest slot. Other stars tipped to join Kendrick are lil’ Wayne, Metro Boomin, Future, Jay Rock and Doechii.
