Latin music and sports will meet again on the same stage, this time with a unique show: the NFL has chosen two of the industry’s most influential figures, Bizarrap and Daddy Yankee, for the centerpiece show.
With this commitment, the U.S. league reinforces its commitment to bringing its brand to new audiences and celebrating the cultural diversity that defines global entertainment today.
All the information about the event: when and where it will be held
The historic match will be held on November 16 at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, where the Washington Commanders and Miami Dolphins will meet in the first official NFL game in Spain.
During halftime, Bizarrap and Daddy Yankee will perform a halftime show that will mark a before and after in the history of the league outside the United States.
The duo will perform for the first time live their new collaboration, “BZRP Music Sessions #0/66”, recently released, as well as some of the Argentine producer’s and the Puerto Rican artist’s most emblematic tracks. Both agreed that this opportunity represents a “huge honor” and a celebration of the global power of Latin music.
A collaboration that reaches the biggest stage
Bizarrap and Daddy Yankee’s show not only symbolizes the union between generations and styles, but also the international reach that Latin music has gained in recent years. The presentation of “BZRP Music Sessions #0/66” on the Bernabéu stage aims to consolidate the two artists as a reference.
Bizarrap, the producer who is known for his successful sessions with Shakira, Quevedo and Rauw Alejandro, said that performing in this context “is a dream come true. Daddy Yankee, for his part, assured that “returning to such a big stage and sharing it with Bizarrap will be an unforgettable experience for fans all over the world”.
The first NFL game in Spain
The Commanders-Dolphins showdown is part of the NFL’s international expansion plan, which in recent years has taken official games to Brazil, Germany and Mexico.
Tim Tubito, the league’s director of global entertainment, said the choice of Madrid “not only seeks to bring American soccer to new audiences, but also to celebrate the cultural impact of Latin music around the world.
The day will also include a pre-show with the Band of the Marine Infantry Group of Madrid, which will perform the Spanish anthem, and with the singer Karina Pasian, based in the capital, who will sing the anthem of the United States.
Where to see the show
The event can be seen in Spain on Cuatro and DAZN, while in the United States it will be broadcast on the NFL’s official network.
The game will start at 7:00 p.m. (local time) and the musical show will take place during halftime, following the classic Super Bowl format.
