Coldplay To Headline 2016 Super Bowl Half-Time Show

Global superstars Coldplay, winners of seven Grammy Awards, will perform at the PEPSI SUPER BOWL 50 HALFTIME SHOW on CBS Sunday, Feb. 7, 2016, the NFL announced Thursday during halftime of the Thursday Night Football game between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions on CBS and NFL Network.

According to the NGL, Coldplay front man Chris Martin is designing a show that will echo elements of the NFL's On the Fifty campaign -- honoring the past, recognizing the present and looking ahead to the next 50 years, including other special artists. For the first-time ever, Pepsi will give fans behind-the-scenes access to how this monumental show will come together at Pepsi.com.

A Head Full of Dreams
Coldplay joins an esteemed list of recent halftime acts including Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, Beyoncé, Madonna, The Who, Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Prince, the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, U2 and more.

Coldplay is one of the world's most popular musical acts, selling more than 80 million copies of their six No. 1 albums and garnering eight BRITs. The band's most recent world tour, 2011/12 Mylo Xyloto, was seen by more than three million people in five continents.

Today, Dec. 4, the band releases their highly anticipated widescreen seventh album, A Head Full Of Dreams -- available worldwide for fans to download on iTunes.

Super Bowl 50 marks Pepsi's fourth year as title sponsor of the Super Bowl Halftime Show, and 14th year as an NFL partner. Pepsi and the NFL have teamed again to provide fans with a halftime experience worthy of pop-culture's biggest stage.
