An artists’ collective led an “ICE Out” protest inside Levi’s Stadium on Sunday during Super Bowl LX.
The protest, called “Flags in the Stands,” was led by California-based advocacy group Contra-ICE. Organizers said it was directed at the “inhumane treatment” of immigrants and other people swept up in President Donald Trump’s deportation regime. The group distributed custom towels around the stadium as fans filed in, which featured a nod to the 2026 halftime performer, Bad Bunny, and the slogan “ICE Out.”
“In moments like this, we can show empathy, stand together, and remind people that no matter what is happening politically, we still have the power to dream, create, and speak out against injustice,” Dali Colorado, founder of Contra-ICE said in a statement.
Lead organizer Shasti Conrad added that the protest was designed to “build on the momentum” created by Bad Bunny and other celebrities during the recent Grammys, where many attendees repeated the phrase “ICE Out” in protest of the Trump administration.
“Culture often leads politics, and moments like this show how people are using joy, creativity, and visibility to push back against ICE and demand a country that truly lives up to its promise to welcome immigrants,” Conrad said.
The protest was organized at a time when Trump’s immigration forces are facing increased scrutiny. During a recent surge in Minneapolis, Trump’s forces shot and killed two American citizens. The deaths sparked protests and bipartisan calls for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, to be fired or removed from office.
