Nigerian singer Burna Boy will headline the halftime show at the 2026 NFL Paris Game, scheduled to take place at the Stade de France on October 25.

The game will be the NFL’s first regular-season game in France, with the Pittsburgh Steelers facing the New Orleans Saints.

Burna Boy will return to the Stade de France after becoming the first African artist to headline the stadium in April 2025.

Speaking about the upcoming performance, Burna Boy said, “Paris gave me one of the biggest nights of my career, and to walk back into Stade de France for a moment like this means everything.”

He added, “The NFL is bringing something to France that has never happened here before, and I get to stand in the middle of it representing African music and I intend to give the people a show they will not forget.”

The 2026 NFL international games will feature seven halftime shows across seven countries, with Nigerian singer Ayra Starr also set to perform at the NFL London Game on October 11.
