The Super Bowl 58 matchup between the 49ers and Chiefs certainly won’t lack star power. Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel — there will be elite playmakers at nearly every position.
But some viewers won’t be as interested in the players on the field as the performer on the halftime stage.
Usher, who is coming off a successful Las Vegas residency, is set to entertain the “Sin City” crowd on Sunday night with a medley of his greatest hits. Living up to the hype will be a tough task, but the R&B legend is embracing the challenge of creating a show that appeals to everyone.
“I think I just start it by making certain that — my kids approved, I got my portion of it from, for the, you know, the 30 and up [crowd], I got them,” Usher told ABC’s Kelley L. Carter. “But for my young’uns, Cinco and Naviyd, I’m taking notes. They’ve been, like, taking conference calls with my entire team, giving notes.”
Here is everything you need to know about the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show, including the approximate start time and TV and streaming options for Usher’s performance.

What time does the Super Bowl halftime show start?
Date: Sunday, Feb. 11 Start time: 8 p.m. ET | 5 p.m. PT (approximate time) Location: Allegiant Stadium (Las Vegas)
Super Bowl 58 will kick off at 6:30 p.m. ET, so the halftime show is expected to begin around 8 p.m. ET. Of course, Usher’s performance could be moved up or pushed back depending on the flow of the game.
Who is performing during halftime of Super Bowl 2024?
Eight-time Grammy Award winner Usher will be the halftime performer at Super Bowl 58. He may bring other artists onto the stage during his show, but he has not yet revealed whether any guest stars made the trip to Las Vegas.
And Usher is good at keeping secrets. For months, even his own children didn’t know that he had booked the gig at the big game.
“As of Aug. 11, I knew. And I had to keep it a secret up until the grand unveiling for the world,” Usher told CBS’ Tracy Smith. “And I couldn’t let my kids know. So, like, any kind of documents I’m receiving, you know, we had, like, a code word that we would only talk on the telephone to let it be known that we were discussing ‘Utah,’ you know? That was the code word.”
Do performers get paid for the Super Bowl halftime show?
Performers don’t get paid for their Super Bowl appearances. The NFL covers any costs related to the production of the show and travel expenses, but Usher won’t be walking away with a check from the league.
However, performers can capitalize on exposure. As Forbes reported last year, Rihanna’s digital album sales jumped more than 300 percent after her Super Bowl show, and her digital song sales increased by nearly 400 percent.
That’s exactly why Usher dropped his new album, “Coming Home,” on Friday.
Who is singing the national anthem at Super Bowl 58?
Country Music Hall of Famer Reba McEntire will sing the national anthem at Super Bowl 58.
“I’m honored to be part of something as big and historic as the Super Bowl coming to Las Vegas for the first time!” McEntire tweeted last month.

She won’t be alone during the pregame ceremonies, though. Post Malone will sing “America the Beautiful,” and Andra Day will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”
