Who Is Performing in the Halftime Show at the 49ers vs Rams on Thursday Night Football Week 1?

On Friday, September 11, 2026, the Grammy-nominated Jonas Brothers headline the halftime show at the Melbourne Cricket Ground during the NFL's first-ever regular-season game in Australia, featuring the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams.
A radar issue caused travel delays for Joe Jonas yesterday, leaving him stuck in Dubai; however, he arrived in Australia last night to join his bandmates for the scheduled performance.
Kevin Jonas said selecting songs for the "five, six, seven minutes" set was challenging, while Nick Jonas noted they prepared a cover of an Australian artist's song to spotlight local music.
More than 20 million viewers are expected to watch the halftime show, which streams live on Netflix and airs on the Seven Network, providing a major platform for the group's touring schedule.
The halftime set is part of a three-day NFL Kickoff Festival at Melbourne Park, as the band continues their Burning Up tour with shows starting in Boston later this month and concluding in New Jersey in December.
