Beyoncé is set to perform during the halftime show of the Houston Texans vs. Baltimore Ravens NFL game on Christmas Day, streaming live on Netflix. The performance will mark the debut of songs from her new Cowboy Carter album at her hometown's NRG Stadium in Houston.

The historic broadcast represents Netflix's first NFL Christmas Gameday, featuring two games:

  • Kansas City Chiefs vs. Pittsburgh Steelers (1 PM ET)
  • Houston Texans vs. Baltimore Ravens (4:30 PM ET)

The performance builds on Beyoncé's impressive NFL resume, including headlining Super Bowl XLVII (featuring a Destiny's Child reunion) and appearing at Super Bowl 50 alongside Coldplay. Her husband Jay-Z's role as NFL's head of music and entertainment programming adds context to this high-profile appearance.

The timing is particularly significant as Beyoncé leads the 2025 Grammy Awards with 11 nominations across multiple categories, including Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year, solidifying her position as the most-nominated artist in Grammy history.

Local viewers can watch the games on broadcast TV in competing team cities, while US mobile users can access the content through NFL+.
