Super Bowl 2025: who will perform at halftime show, what time does it start, and how long does it last?

One more edition of the most important game of the year of the NFL is just around the corner: the Super Bowl 2025. And after a season filled with great matches, spectacular plays, and unforgettable moments, all eyes around the world will be focused on what happens on February 9th at the Caesars Superdome in the city of New Orleans, Louisiana, between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. 

However, almost at the same level as the game that will crown the league champion, millions of people eagerly await this game for one particular factor: the halftime show. 

As the name indicates, this spectacle takes place during the halftime of the game where a music star appears in the middle of the stadium with a unique and special show. 

On this occasion, and for the second time in his career after briefly performing as a guest at Super Bowl LVI held in the city of Los Angeles in previous years, American rapper Kendrick Lamar will entertain the live audience and everyone watching the game on television and other platforms. 

What time does the halftime show start and how long will it last?

Determining the exact time the halftime show starts is extremely complicated due to the diversity of factors that may arise during the first two halves of the game such as pauses, play reviews, among other factors. 

However, considering that the game starts sharp at 6:30 PM (ET), the show could start around 8:00 PM (ET). 

Regarding the duration of the show, it may have an approximate time of 15 minutes. In addition, it is important to add another 10 to 15 minutes due to stage preparation and the subsequent removal of objects and structures used in the concert. 

Who will accompany Kendrick Lamar? 

As has become customary in recent editions of the halftime show, Lamar will also have a guest, with rapper SZA being chosen for this grand spectacle. 

However, it is expected that the American won't be the only invited singer to the show, so there will surely be another surprise during the concert. 

Regarding Lamar's setlist, the specialized site Rolling Stone revealed the possible songs he would perform during his participation: 

• Money Trees 

• Alright 

• Backseat Freestyle 

• Swimming Pools 

• Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe
