Which city hosted Beyoncé’s 2013 Super Bowl XLVII halftime performance?

The story behind the answer

New Orleans hosted Beyoncé’s 2013 Super Bowl XLVII halftime performance.

Super Bowl XLVII was played on February 3, 2013, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the game, while Beyoncé performed during the halftime show.

Her set included “Crazy in Love,” “End of Time,” and “Baby Boy.” Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams then joined her onstage for a Destiny’s Child reunion, marking the group’s first televised performance together in several years. The show ended with “Halo.”

The halftime performance became one of the most discussed Super Bowl musical events of its era. It is sometimes confused with Beyoncé’s 2016 Super Bowl 50 appearance, when she joined Coldplay and Bruno Mars. That later performance took place in Santa Clara, California, not New Orleans.
