The NFL has revealed its star-studded lineup for the 2025 Thanksgiving Day halftime shows, and the holiday is shaping up to be one of the most musically stacked yet.
According to Billboard, Post Malone, Jack White, and Lil Jon will each headline performances during the league’s three traditional games on Thanksgiving Day. Post Malone will take center field at AT&T Stadium during the matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and Kansas City Chiefs. The Texas native announced the news with a joint Instagram post showing himself in Cowboys gear driving a horned semi-truck into Dallas.
“Our big secret’s out! The one and only @postmalone will ring in The Salvation Army’s famous #RedKettleKickoff at the Dallas Cowboys halftime show this Thanksgiving on CBS,” the post read. “Let’s make this a Texas-sized kickoff!”
Malone commented, “how bout them cowboys?!!” and later added in a statement: “I’m from Texas. I grew up a Cowboys fan and have been watching this halftime show for years. It’s a real honor to be part of the Red Kettle Kickoff with The Salvation Army and the Dallas Cowboys and help bring hope to so many people.”
In Detroit, hometown legend Jack White will headline the Lions–Packers halftime show at Ford Field. White announced his appearance with an Instagram clip showing a blue vinyl record being pressed, with its center label revealing the halftime show details. “Hot off the press,” he captioned the post.
White’s performance comes on the heels of significant halftime show news for Detroit as Eminem and his longtime manager Paul Rosenberg have signed a multi-year partnership with the Lions to executive-produce the team’s Thanksgiving halftime shows from 2025 through 2027.
Rounding out the NFL’s Thanksgiving entertainment, Lil Jon will perform under the lights at M&T Bank Stadium during the Baltimore Ravens–Cincinnati Bengals night game. The rapper will also appear at the 99th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City earlier that morning.
With Post Malone representing Texas, Jack White holding it down in Detroit, and Lil Jon bringing the energy to Baltimore, the 2025 Thanksgiving Day games promise a full day of football and top-tier performances.
