Post Malone to Headline Cowboys' Thanksgiving Halftime Show Benefiting The Salvation Army
The Dallas Cowboys have announced that Post Malone, a Grammy-nominated recording artist and Grapevine native, will be performing at halftime during the team's Thanksgiving game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Nov. 27. Post Malone, whose real name is Austin Post, has a strong connection to the Cowboys as his father worked at AT&T Stadium in the past. This will be his first appearance at the Cowboys' Thanksgiving halftime show, and he has previously performed at other football events like the Houston Texans' Christmas Day game and Super Bowl LVIII.
The halftime concert featuring Post Malone will benefit The Salvation Army, a charity that has received millions of dollars in donations from past performances at AT&T Stadium. Artists like Reba McEntire, Destiny's Child, Luke Combs, and Dolly Parton have all contributed to this cause in the past. Post Malone has performed at AT&T Stadium multiple times before, including headlining his own festival and a sold-out show in May 2025.
There has been speculation about Taylor Swift, a 14-time Grammy-winning artist, potentially making an appearance at the game. Swift's fiancé, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has attended games in the past, and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones mentioned that she has a suite reserved for the game. Post Malone has been a longtime supporter of the Cowboys and has been featured in the team's social media content. He has also been spotted at various games, showing his support for the team.
The halftime concert, which will last around 15 minutes, will be held on the field during the Thanksgiving game. The game is set to kick off at 3:30 p.m. CST and will be broadcast on CBS. Post Malone's performance is expected to be a highlight of the Thanksgiving game festivities, continuing the tradition of entertaining halftime shows at AT&T Stadium.
