Mariah Carey will headline the NFL Christmas Game Day Open show on Netflix

Queen of Christmas Mariah Carey is coming to your TV screens on December 25th via Netflix and the NFL.

Carey will appear in the opening show of NFL Christmas Gameday on the streamer, the same day Beyoncé will perform live on Netflix during halftime of the Ravens-Texans game.

Carey, whose holiday classic “All I Want for Christmas Is You” jumped to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week, is currently on her holiday music tour, which ends Tuesday. She will perform her 30th anniversary celebratory hit to open the NFL show. The song reappears on the Billboard charts every holiday season and has been officially certified 16x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Netflix is ​​the global home of the two NFL games on Christmas Day, including the Kansas City Chiefs vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers at 10 a.m. PT and the Baltimore Ravens vs. the Houston Texans at 1:30 p.m. PT. The holiday games will be televised in participating team cities and will be available on U.S. mobile devices with NFL+.

Carey and Beyoncé’s upcoming performances come after Netflix was hit hard by users over a series of technical issues that plagued the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight, with many questioning the company’s ability to host live events in to stream on a large scale. Netflix also has at least one NFL Christmas game scheduled in 2025 and 2026, which both parties hope will become a new holiday tradition.
