After years of helping bring artists to the Super Bowl Halftime Show, JAY-Z will take the stage himself. Apple Music, alongside the NFL and Roc Nation, announced that JAY-Z will perform at the Apple Music Super Bowl LXI Halftime Show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California, on Sunday, February 14, 2027.
"From Reasonable Doubt to standing on the Super Bowl Halftime stage, this has been a journey," JAY-Z said in a statement. "Thirty years of music, work, and culture on the world's biggest stage. This run continues to be a dream come true."
Apple has released JAY-Z's Road to Halftime on Apple Music, featuring exclusive content, season-long programming, and experiences created in partnership with the NFL. Viewers can tune into the show on ESPN, ABC and Disney+, and on mobile devices with NFL+.
Oliver Schusser, Apple's Vice President of Music and International Content, said, "JAY-Z's impact on global music culture is as profound as it is undeniable. We've had the privilege of working closely with him these last few years to bring some of the world's most exciting and prolific artists to the Super Bowl Halftime Show stage and we are so thrilled that he will be taking that stage himself this year."
Apple Music took over sponsorship of the NFL's Super Bowl Halftime Show in 2022, with previous headline acts including Rihanna, Usher, Kendrick Lamar, and Bad Bunny.
