Green Day performed at the Super Bowl LX opening ceremony on Sunday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The band played a set including 'Good Riddance', 'Holiday', 'Boulevard of Broken Dreams', and 'American Idiot'. Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong greeted the crowd with 'Welcome to the Bay! It's Super Bowl LX!'.
While the band avoided political statements during the Super Bowl performance, Armstrong had previously directed a message at ICE agents during a Spotify-sponsored party on Friday night. He told them to 'quit your shitty-ass job', claiming that the Trump administration would eventually abandon them. He named Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, JD Vance, and Donald Trump.
Green Day, formed in the East Bay of San Francisco, consists of Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, and Tré Cool. They have won five Grammy Awards and sold approximately 75 million records globally. The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015.
Other pregame performers included Charlie Puth (national anthem), Brandi Carlile ('America the Beautiful'), and Coco Jones ('Lift Every Voice and Sing'). The halftime show featured Bad Bunny, who won the 2026 Grammy for Album of the Year. The Super Bowl LX game, held on February 8, saw the New England Patriots defeat the Seattle Seahawks 28-24.
