Which Super Bowl did Beyoncé headline for the first time during its halftime show in 2013?

Beyoncé first headlined a Super Bowl halftime show at Super Bowl XLVII in 2013.

The performance took place on February 3, 2013, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Beyoncé’s set included “Love on Top,” “Crazy in Love,” “End of Time,” and “Halo.” Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams joined her onstage, creating a Destiny’s Child reunion during the performance.

The show followed a major public performance period for Beyoncé and helped reinforce her status as a leading live entertainer. It also became one of the most discussed halftime performances of the decade. The Baltimore Ravens defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the game, 34–31.

Beyoncé later returned as a Super Bowl halftime performer at Super Bowl 50 in 2016, when she appeared during Coldplay’s headlining show alongside Bruno Mars. That later appearance is why the two events are sometimes conflated. Her first solo headline slot was specifically Super Bowl XLVII.
