For the 2026 Super Bowl, Turning Point USA revealed plans for its own alternative event to run alongside the much-anticipated halftime show headlined by Bad Bunny.

The organization has since shared a new update about those plans. Here’s what we know.

Turning Point USA (TPUSA) is an American nonprofit established in 2012 by conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He led the group from its inception until September 10, 2025, when he was fatally shot while speaking at a university event in Utah.

Following his death, TPUSA’s board named his widow, Erika Kirk, as the organization’s CEO and chair.

TPUSA, along with several conservative commentators, publicly criticized the NFL’s selection of Bad Bunny as this year’s halftime performer. Much of the backlash centered on political and cultural differences tied to the artist and his public positions.

They argued for a more “traditional” or “all-American” cultural presentation and created a competing livestream halftime concert instead. Their alternative show was framed as celebrating “faith, family and freedom” and ran at the same time as the official performance.

In the alternative show, which they are calling ‘The All-American Halftime Show’, they have a big lineup of singers. The main act is Kid Rock, who is publicly a supporter of the Republicans and Donald Trump.

Also performing are Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett.

Still, now the Turning Point USA official account on X (formerly Twitter) has posted an update about the show’s streaming which might affect some viewers.

They wrote, “UPDATE: Due to licensing restrictions, we are unable to stream The All-American Halftime Show on X.” However they added more details and to provide an alternative, saying, “Head on over to our YouTube channel tonight around 8PM ET to watch the full show.”

Some have critique for how the news was delivered, with one person writing, “you should have posted a link with the post!!!” another person echoed the sentiment saying, “Need to make this easy for folks… Give me a link and I will share.”

Other people were critical of the management and lack of planning, with one person saying, “lol, can’t even pay to have it streamed properly. You think you would have figured this out before gametime.”

Another wrote, “I hate to say this but this is starting to look like amateur hour.”
