At which NFL event did Beyoncé headline the halftime show in 2013?

The story behind the answer

Beyoncé headlined the halftime show at Super Bowl XLVII in 2013.

Super Bowl XLVII took place on February 3, 2013, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers 34–31 in the game. Beyoncé performed during the halftime break, making the show one of the most discussed entertainment moments of that NFL season.

Her set included “Love on Top,” “Crazy in Love,” “End of Time,” and “Halo.” Destiny’s Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams joined her onstage for “Bootylicious,” “Independent Women Part I,” and “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It).” Their appearance marked a high-profile reunion of the trio.

A power outage interrupted the game after halftime, but it did not define Beyoncé’s performance itself. The show attracted a huge television audience and was followed by a significant increase in digital sales of her music.
