The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles aren’t the only ones hitting the field at the 2025 Super Bowl.
Football’s biggest night also features a slew of A-list performances, from buzzy pre-game entertainment to Kendrick Lamar’s much-awaited halftime show.
Whether you’re a diehard sports fan or just in it for the music, snacks and star-studded commercials, read on for everything you need to know to catch all the action.
When and where is the 2025 Super Bowl?
This year’s showdown takes place in New Orleans’ Ceasers Superdome on Sunday, Feb. 9. While the game itself begins at 6:30 p.m. EST, the Super Bowl LIX Pregame show entertainment starts at 1 p.m.
How to watch the pre-game and halftime shows at the 2025 Super Bowl
Long before the actual kickoff, the NFL’s pre-show kicks off with can’t-miss performances — and to catch it all without cable, you’ll need a live TV streaming service like DirecTV’s entertainment streaming bundle.
For a limited time, new customers can even score a $100 DirecTV Visa Reward card when they apply the promo BIGGAME at checkout.
In addition to Fox, which is broadcasting the big game this year, the package includes over 90 channels like MTV, Hallmark and Bravo — ideal if “Real Housewives” reunions are your personal Super Bowl.
Who is signing the national anthem
Tune into the pre-show to see Jon Batiste perform the national anthem. Other confirmed performers include Trombone Shorty, Lauren Daigle, and Ledisi — all Grammy-winning Louisiana natives.
And if history’s any indication the stands and suites will be just as celeb-packed as the stage, between A-list WAGs and famous football fans.
Who is performing the halftime show?
Kendrick Lamar is headlining this year’s Super Bowl halftime show. His performance comes on the heels of a major night at the Grammys, where he took home five golden Gramophones (including Song of the Year and Record of the Year for “Not Like Us”).
While it’s unclear how many famous guests will join the rapper on stage, so far he’s confirmed that SZA will make an appearance.
