List: Every Super Bowl Halftime Show in NFL History

The Weeknd will headline the Super Bowl 55 halftime show at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.

This year's Super Bowl halftime show in Tampa will be headlined by The Weeknd.

The three-time Grammy award winner announced the news last November, saying he is "humbled, honored and ecstatic" to perform the famous show. He will take the stage during halftime for Sunday's game between the Chiefs and the Buccaneers, joining performers back to 1967 in entertaining one of the largest audiences in the world.

The Weeknd's 2020 album, After Hours, is the No. 1 most streamed R&B album of all time, and his 80s nostalgic track "Blinding Lights" went five-times RIAA-certified platinum. He has also recently made a number of acting appearances, including in the 2019 film Uncut Gems.

The Weeknd has a tough act to follow after last year's Super Bowl halftime show, which drew more than 104 million viewers, showcased Jennifer Lopez and Shakira.

Halftime performances at the title game started as smaller productions, but after Michael Jackson headlined the 1993 show, the league made a more conscious effort to secure big-name performers during the longer-than-normal halftime break.

Performances were also crafted around a theme until 2002, but following U2's tribute to the lives lost in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, themes were dropped from the halftime acts. Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Prince highlight a list of some of the biggest names to perform at football's biggest show.
