Houston, which also plays on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium against the Kansas City Cheifs, returns five days later to participate in one that will be streamed exclusively on Netflix. The Chiefs will open the afternoon with a matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers at noon.
A native of Houston, Beyoncé’s performance will air exclusively on the streaming site as part of the flare. This marks the first time she’s performed at an NFL event since her collaboration in 2016 with Coldplay and Bruno Mars at Super Bowl L in Santa Clara, California.
That performance ended up being one of the most-watched Super Bowl halftime shows, with 115.5 million tuned to see her perform “Formation.”

The concert will also mark the first time she’s performed songs from her Cowboy Carter album, which was nominated for 11 Grammys.
“Your early Christmas wish has been granted as Beyoncé will perform during Netflix’s first-ever NFL Christmas Gameday live on Netflix this December 25,” a statement released by Netflix read. “The performance will take place during the second of Netflix’s two games, as the Houston Texans host the Baltimore Ravens at NRG Stadium at 4:30 PM ET.
This performance in her hometown of Houston, Texas, produced by her company, Parkwood Entertainment and Jesse Collins Entertainment, will be the first live performance of songs from her genre-bending and record-breaking COWBOY CARTER, album. The 11-time Grammy-nominated, juggernaut recently became the most nominated album by a female artist.”
The Netflix Christmas Day games will air on broadcast TV in the competing team cities and be available on U.S. mobile devices with NFL+.
