For the first time ever, Netflix will broadcast their first-ever NFL Christmas Gameday live on Dec. 25, and they’re going all out for the event with two global superstars performing at both scheduled games. Mariah Carey, who has managed to become the reigning Queen of Christmas thanks to her hit song “All I Want for Christmas is You,” will start things off before the Chiefs vs. Steelers game begins at 1 p.m. ET with a performance of her signature holiday hit.
While Carey’s holiday performance will begin the festivities on Christmas Day, she’s not the only musical star set to perform during Netflix’s NFL Christmas Day extravaganza. Beyoncé will be performing a halftime show at the Baltimore Ravens vs. Houston Texans game. While details about that performance are scarce, we can expect a few guests from the Cowboy Carter album to join Beyoncé during the 2024 Christmas Day halftime show.
There will also be two reputable groups singing the National Anthem prior to each game: Voices of Service, a group made up of retired service members, will sing the anthem at the Chiefs vs. Steelers game after Carey’s performance concludes, and a capella group Pentatonix will deliver the anthem before the Ravens vs. Texans game. Are you ready to tune in? Here’s what you need to know about how to watch Mariah Carey perform this Christmas Day.
