Jay-Z confirmed to headline 2027 Super Bowl halftime show
The Super Bowl is scheduled for February 14, 2027, at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
Jay-Z will headline the 2027 Super Bowl halftime performance, an announcement made on October 26 during the halftime break in the Dallas Cowboys–Philadelphia Eagles game on Monday Night Football.
The rapper has spent several years helping select performers for the show. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that when the league agreed to have Roc Nation produce the event, he asked that Jay-Z eventually perform when he felt ready.
In a statement carried by Variety, Jay-Z described the appearance as another milestone in a journey spanning thirty years of music. Oliver Schusser, Apple’s Vice President of Music and International Content, also welcomed his selection after years of working together on halftime performances.
The booking follows his JAY-Z 30 celebration concerts, which marked 30 years since his debut album, Reasonable Doubt. Guests at his performances this year have included Beyonce, Blue Ivy Carter, Rihanna, Alicia Keys and Eminem.
