Jonas Brothers to Headline Halftime Show at NFL's Australia Opener
The pop-rock trio will perform at halftime when the 49ers face the Rams at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in the NFL's first regular-season game in Australia.
The Jonas Brothers will headline the halftime show for the NFL's first-ever regular-season game in Australia, when the San Francisco 49ers face the Los Angeles Rams at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
The league announced the halftime headliners on Wednesday. The game will air on Netflix in the United States on September 10 and is part of the NFL's expanded international schedule this season, which includes games across seven countries.
"We couldn't be more excited to perform at halftime during the NFL's first-ever regular season game in Australia," the Jonas Brothers said in a statement. "Playing at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground in front of such passionate Australian fans is an incredible honor."
The band — brothers Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas — has sold more than 20 million albums and recently received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Tim Tubito, the NFL's senior director of global game presentation and entertainment, called the Melbourne game a landmark moment for the league.
"The Jonas Brothers are global entertainers whose music connects across generations, making them the ideal artists to help us celebrate this historic game in Melbourne," Tubito said. "We look forward to delivering a memorable halftime performance for our fans in Australia and those watching around the world."
