What time does Green Day perform at the Super Bowl? The Super Bowl LX 2026 timing fans are searching for

Fans searching for Green Day’s Super Bowl moment should focus on the pregame window, not halftime.

Green Day is expected to appear during Super Bowl LX coverage as part of the opening, pregame ceremony programming. That places the performance before kickoff, as the broadcast builds toward the anthem, introductions and the final on-field ceremonies.

Estimated TV window: Green Day’s performance is widely expected to air at roughly 6:00 p.m. ET (about 3:00 p.m. PT) as the broadcast transitions deeper into the pregame ceremony sequence.

Live coverage can shift by a few minutes depending on the pace of ceremonies.

The timing matters because many viewers tune in at kickoff or wait for halftime. If you only start watching at kickoff, you may miss the pregame performance window.

For a safer plan, be watching by 5:30 p.m. ET so you’re already in the broadcast flow when the ceremony segment begins. A recent explainer from The Cincinnati Enquirer also points viewers toward the pregame window for the performance timing.

Time-zone conversions below are based on the commonly expected broadcast window and help you set reminders without second-guessing.

Location When to watch Why
U.S. East (ET) ~6:00 p.m. (aim for 5:30 p.m.) Pregame ceremony window right before kickoff
U.S. West (PT) ~3:00 p.m. (aim for 2:30 p.m.) Same live moment, earlier local time
UK (GMT) ~11:00 p.m. (aim for 10:30 p.m.) Late-night pregame ceremony segment
Canada (ET/PT) Same as U.S. (ET or PT) Broadcast timing mirrors U.S. windows
Australia (AEDT) ~2:00 p.m. Monday (aim for 1:30 p.m.) Monday viewing due to the time difference

If you’re recording the broadcast, start the recording at least 30–45 minutes before kickoff. Pregame ceremony pacing can move quickly, and the safest approach is to capture the full lead-in.
