U2 to Headline NFL's First Thanksgiving Eve Halftime Show, Live on Netflix Nov. 25

U2 will headline the halftime show at the NFL’s first-ever Thanksgiving Eve game on Wednesday, Nov. 25, 2026, streaming live on Netflix, according to reports from Spin and ClutchPoints. The Los Angeles Rams host the Green Bay Packers at SoFi Stadium, with kickoff at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

It’s U2’s first NFL halftime show in 24 years. Their last was Super Bowl XXXVI on Feb. 3, 2002, which used the heart-shaped stage from the Elevation Tour.

How to watch the U2 halftime show

The game streams live on Netflix in the countries where Netflix carries NFL games. You’ll need an active Netflix subscription.

What will U2 play?

The setlist hasn’t been announced. The band released the album Carnaval de Luz on Nov. 13, 2026, and new single “Silencio” debuted live at their 50th anniversary concert on Sept. 25. Both are good bets for a short halftime set.

Is the 2027 Super Bowl halftime U2?

No. Reports say Jay-Z will headline the Super Bowl LXI halftime show in February 2027. U2 will be on the road by then: the Carnaval de Luz world tour opens Feb. 23, 2027 in Mexico City.

We’ll update this story with the setlist after the game. Track every song on our U2 setlist page.
