Stockholm, Sweden / Los Angeles, California — Country and pop fans alike are making their voices heard loud and clear. More than 40,000 people have already signed a rapidly growing petition to replace Bad Bunny with ABBA as the headliner for the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show — and the movement shows no signs of slowing down.
Supporters say this isn’t just about nostalgia — it’s about bringing real music, harmony, and unity back to the biggest stage in the world. Across generations and genres, fans agree: ABBA’s timeless sound is exactly what the Super Bowl needs now.
“It’s not about pop versus country — it’s about heart,” one fan wrote. “ABBA’s music has always brought people together. That’s something the world needs more of right now.”
The petition, which began as a small grassroots campaign on social media, has quickly gained international attention under the hashtags #ABBASuperBowl and #RealMusicReturns, with signatures pouring in from across the globe — from Nashville to New York, Sydney to Stockholm.
Fans argue that ABBA’s catalog — from “Dancing Queen” and “Mamma Mia” to “The Winner Takes It All” — offers the perfect blend of joy, nostalgia, and artistry, capable of captivating audiences far beyond the typical halftime spectacle.
“ABBA represents an era when music united the world,” another supporter said. “Their songs are timeless, their message universal, and their energy unforgettable.”
Industry insiders have already taken notice, with some calling this the most passionate fan-driven Super Bowl campaign in years. While neither the NFL nor ABBA’s representatives have commented, the groundswell of support continues to grow by the hour.
Because for millions of fans around the world, this isn’t just about one performance — it’s about reclaiming what the Super Bowl Halftime Show used to stand for: music that moves people, melodies that last, and moments that bring us together.
And if the fans get their wish, the world might just see something extraordinary in 2026 — four Swedes, one stage, and a golden night where harmony wins again.
