Grammy-winning Afrobeats icon Burna Boy is set to take center stage at the 2026 NFL halftime show in Paris. The Nigerian superstar will perform at the renowned Stade de France in Saint-Denis on October 25, entertaining thousands of fans during the high-stakes matchup between the New Orleans Saints and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The upcoming fixture marks a major milestone for American football, serving as the NFL's first-ever regular-season game hosted in France. Burna Boy’s inclusion highlights the league’s ongoing strategy to merge global sports culture with world-class entertainment as it expands its footprint across Europe.
This performance marks a triumphant return to the Stade de France for the Afro-fusion artist. Burna Boy previously made history at the venue in April 2025, when he became the first African musician to headline a sold-out solo concert at the massive stadium.
With his explosive stage presence and global catalogue of hits, Burna Boy's headline slot promises to deliver an unforgettable spectacle, further solidifying the global reach of Afrobeats on one of international sports' biggest stages.
