It also features an immediate NFC East showdown against longtime division rival Washington Commanders.
News of P!nk’s appearance quickly generated excitement throughout Philadelphia and the broader NFL community.
Few artists maintain a stronger connection to Eagles football than the Grammy Award-winning singer.
Born and raised in the Philadelphia area, P!nk has proudly supported the franchise for decades.
Her bond with the organization became unforgettable during the Eagles’ Super Bowl LII run.
She famously performed the national anthem before the championship game against New England Patriots.

That connection makes her halftime performance a perfect fit for the season-opening celebration.
Meanwhile, the Commanders arrive hoping to spoil the festivities in front of a packed crowd.
The rivalry adds another layer of intensity to an already anticipated opening-day matchup.
Lincoln Financial Field is expected to be sold out as fans welcome football back.
