The โMidnight Skyโ singer will take center stage at the โTikTok Tailgateโ event taking place at Tampa Bayโs Raymond James Stadium, just hours before the Big Game.
As previously announced by the NFL, the championship game will seat 22,000 people in the stadium, with free admission given to 7,500 already-vaccinated health care workers, who will also be invited to Cyrusโ pregame performance.

Also billed for the event is country star Eric Church and R&B songstress Jazmine Sullivan set to sing the national anthem together, with vocalist H.E.R. delivering โAmerica the Beautiful.โ
The Weeknd, who was announced as this yearโs Super Bowl LV halftime show headliner, shared a statement expressing his gratitude for the gig. "We all grow up watching the world's biggest acts playing the Super Bowl and one can only dream of being in that position," the crooner shared in November.
