STAMFORD, Conn. – August 21, 2024 – Multi-Platinum, 8-time GRAMMY® Award winner Carrie Underwood will star in the show open for NBC’s Sunday Night Football for the 12th consecutive season beginning September 8 on NBC and Peacock.
The new open for primetime’s No. 1 show celebrates the SNF “road show” that visits NFL cities each weekend, embracing the pageantry and anticipation for each matchup. Underwood performed the open from The Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas, home of her ongoing residency, REFLECTION.
“Carrie once again delivers a show-stopping performance in combination with backstage and behind the scenes energy to set the tone for this special night,” said Tripp Dixon, creative director of the SNF show open for each of the past 12 years.
“It was so much fun to welcome the Sunday Night Football team back to the Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas,” said Underwood. “Shooting the new show open is always something I look forward to, and Tripp and the whole creative team brought it yet again, and we had a great day putting on an exciting new performance. Like everybody else, I’m waiting all day for Sunday night!”
The show open for Sunday Night Football, primetime television’s No. 1 program for an unprecedented 13 consecutive years, will debut on Sunday, Sept. 8 on NBC and Peacock leading into Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams visiting Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions in an NFC Wild Card Playoff rematch on the season debut of SNF.
