Green Day to Ignite Super Bowl LX Opening Ceremony: Rock Anthems and MVP Tributes!

Get ready for a sonic boom! Green Day is officially slated to kick off Super Bowl LX with a high-octane performance, ushering in the game with their signature brand of rock anthems. The announcement, straight from the NFL, promises a dynamic opening as they welcome Super Bowl MVPs onto the field.

This year's Super Bowl will be held at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, making it a hometown gig of sorts for the Berkeley-bred band. Billie Joe Armstrong expressed the band's excitement in a press release, stating, "We are super hyped to open Super Bowl 60 right in our backyard! We are honored to welcome the MVPs who’ve shaped the game and open the night for fans all over the world. Let’s have fun! Let’s get loud!"

While some outlets have attempted to frame the booking as a political statement, citing the band's past criticisms of Donald Trump, the NFL seems focused on delivering a memorable entertainment experience for fans.

Joining Green Day in the Super Bowl lineup are previously announced performers including Bad Bunny headlining the Halftime Show, and Charli Puth, Brandi Carlile, and Coco Jones providing the pre-show entertainment.
