Hosting the Detroit Lions at Levi’s Stadium, the San Francisco 49ers will welcome the talented singer Luis Fonsi to the field before the game even starts. Kicking off the Championship game, the singer is scheduled to perform the national anthem. As for the halftime show, that honor goes to the band behind classic songs like “Don’t Stop Believin’”, Journey. Last performing for the Bay Area back in April 2022, the band will entertain fans during the halftime show as they currently prepare to celebrate 50 years in music with a special tour.

Although both Championship games are sure to be close, as each team hopes to secure a spot at the Super Bowl, ticket prices soared to new highs as the Lions look to upset the 49ers. For a seat on the 50-yard line, fans are paying close to $4,000. But that is cheap when compared to other fans selling their seats for upwards of $55,000. With the game a historic moment for the Lions, Detroit fans are sure to pack the arena.
