Green Day has recently been announced as a headliner of the ‘EA Sports Presents The Madden Bowl’ taking place on February 9 at the House of Blues in Las Vegas. Joining Green Day are Big Boi, Killer Mike, and Breland. Andrea Hopelain, GM & SVP of Publishing for EA SPORTS, shared: “The Super Bowl is a moment where the world comes together in celebration of football, and we love being part of it with our fans, our partners at the NFL, and everyone who loves the sport. We’re thrilled Madden Bowl is back bigger than ever, with the brightest stars from sport, music, gaming and entertainment to kick off the biggest weekend in football.”
Green Day said in a statement: “Prepare your ears because we’re gonna bring the loudest show of Super Bowl weekend! Stoked to reunite with Madden NFL and remind the world that rock and football go together like EA SPORTS and It’s In The Game!!”
Said Big Boi: “Las Vegas isn’t ready for the show we’re about to bring! Madden Bowl will be the party of Friday night and as a longtime fan of Madden, I can’t wait to put on a show with my boy Killer Mike to celebrate another Super Bowl with EA SPORTS.”
BRELAND shared: “I’ve had almost every single Madden NFL since 2003, and as the smallest kid in my class with no athletic future, it gave me a chance to feel like a professional football player when I turned it on. Playing Madden Bowl is a full circle moment in my life and I couldn’t be more excited.”
The Madden Bowl will also include interactive experiences and the finale of the Madden NFL 24 championship. The last two players will go head to head in the live championship for the title of Ultimate Madden Bowl Champion, as well as $1 million. The championship will stream live on Twitch and YouTube starting at 6:30 pm.
