Who is singing the national anthem at the Bengals vs Ravens game on Thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving night football in Baltimore is a full-on show. And this year’s cliffhanger between the Baltimore Ravens and the Cincinnati Bengals brings some serious star power to the pregame and halftime entertainment.

National Anthem by Renée Elise Goldsberry

The spotlight will shine brightest on Renée Elise Goldsberry, the Tony-winning Broadway star best known for playing Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton. Goldsberry is scheduled to deliver the national anthem before kickoff, a choice that blends game-day tradition with high-level artistry.

Goldsberry’s dramatic vocal style and theatrical background make her an inspired pick. Thanksgiving football deserves something memorable, and a powerful anthem from a performer of her caliber sets the tone.

Halftime: Lil Jon brings the energy

Once the game is underway, halftime won’t slow things down. Award-winning rapper, producer, and DJ Lil Jon will take the field with a performance from the Bud Light Touchdown Club. Known for party anthems that ignite stadiums, Lil Jon’s set promises to match the energy on the field.

Between the high-stakes AFC North matchup and the star-studded musical lineup, Thanksgiving night in Baltimore is shaping up to be one of the most electric games of the year.
