Grammy-winning Nigerian singer Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, will headline the halftime show at the NFL Paris Game on Oct. 25 at the Stade de France.
The Afrobeats star will perform during the regular-season clash between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New Orleans Saints, marking the NFL’s first regular-season game in France. The league announced Burna Boy as a global headliner for the event, which is part of its 2026 International Games.
Burna Boy said returning to the Stade de France would be significant, recalling his previous performances in Paris. He added that the NFL’s first game in France would provide an opportunity to showcase African music on the international stage.
The Paris performance is one of seven halftime shows planned across the NFL’s 2026 International Games, which will span seven countries and four continents. Burna Boy has built an international profile through hits including Last Last, On the Low and Ye, as well as collaborations and performances around the world.
