Jonas Brothers Play Grey Cup Halftime in Vancouver
As headliners of the Twisted Tea Grey Cup Halftime Show, the Jonas Brothers will deliver their signature sound and patented positivity to Canadian Football League (CFL) fans gathered for the nation’s largest single-day sporting event. Public Sale for the 111th Grey Cup begins tomorrow, June 4, at 2:00pm PT.
The internationally acclaimed group – comprised of Nick, Joe, and Kevin – has sold over 20 million albums around the world with multiple chart-topping smashes, 26 Billboard Hot 100 hits, three consecutive No. 1 debuts on the Billboard 200, and two GRAMMY nominations across their illustrious career. The Tour circled the globe with sold-out stadium and arena dates throughout the past year, in support of 2023’s The Album, which featured the laid-back, feel-good singles Wings, Waffle House and Summer Baby. The band’s latest effort, in collaboration with country rocker Bailey Zimmerman, Strong Enough, was released last November.
The Grey Cup Halftime Show is presented by Twisted Tea – the Official ‘Ready-to-drink’ beverage of the CFL and its iconic championship.
The 111th Grey Cup will be played at BC Place Stadium in Vancouver on Sunday, November 17 with kickoff slated for 3:00pm PT. The championship contest and the Twisted Tea Grey Cup Halftime Show will be broadcast live across the nation on TSN and RDS – Canada’s home of the CFL.
