The fictional band HUNTR/X, known from the Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters, is set to perform during the NFL Christmas Gameday. Their appearance will take place during halftime of the highly anticipated matchup between the Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions on December 25, 2023, at 4:30 PM EDT.
This festive event will be streamed live on Netflix, providing a unique blend of sports and entertainment. HUNTR/X will feature in Snoop Dogg’s Holiday Halftime Party, adding an exciting element to the game day lineup. The official synopsis notes that the group will be joined by other notable artists, including EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and REI AMI.
The NFL Christmas Gameday will kick off earlier in the day with a matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Commanders at 1:00 PM EDT. The day promises a star-studded celebration, with Kelly Clarkson set to open the event with her holiday classic “Underneath the Tree.”
This year’s event follows a trend of high-profile performances during NFL games. In 2024, Mariah Carey graced the field to perform “All I Want for Christmas Is You” during the Christmas Day game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Pittsburgh Steelers. Similarly, Beyoncé delivered an unforgettable halftime show during the Baltimore Ravens versus Houston Texans game on the same day.
As the excitement builds for this unique fusion of K-pop and American football, fans can look forward to a memorable holiday celebration filled with music and sports. With HUNTR/X taking the stage, the NFL Christmas Gameday is set to be a highlight of the holiday season.
