Whether praised or criticized, liked or disliked, Rihanna’s performance at the Super Bowl Halftime Show 2023 was still the most talked about musical moment in the world all week.

Rihanna exploded at the Super Bowl Halftime Show 2023.

So, have you ever wondered how the stage Rihanna performed at the Super Bowl Halftime Show was set up right in the middle of halftime of the football game?

In essence, the Super Bowl Halftime Show is a halftime break in the NFL Finals of Football – the number 1 most popular sport among Americans, far surpassing the rest. Therefore, the duration of the Super Bowl Halftime Show can only last about 20-30 minutes maximum for the Final to continue to take place. Regardless of whether the performing artists are all A-list “superstars”, A+ or legendary, there is only so much time.

Rihanna and her impressive flying stage.

Construction and installation of a majestic stage would normally take all day, or even several days, but at this event, the crew only had 5-10 minutes to turn the previously empty grass field into a beautiful one. A stage marks the performance of a lifetime for an artist, and then returns to the lawn in its original state.

This is an extremely difficult problem, requiring an extremely professional team with careful and smooth preparation of hundreds of technicians at the same time. The behind-the-scenes clip recorded by an audience at the stadium gave many of us “goosebumps” at the speed and rhythm of the crew to create this once-in-a-lifetime stage.Toàn bộ quá trình thi công sân khấu cho Rihanna trình diễn tại Super Bowl Halftime Show 2023 chỉ mất chưa đến 10 phút

When the whistle signaling the end of the first half had just sounded, the entire crew was ready in advance to start the process of creating the Super Bowl Halftime Show stage.

The first half of the Final had just ended, the players of the two teams rushed to leave the field. At this time, technicians began to flood the field to fix the position of the stage.

Hundreds of technicians and volunteers dressed in black hurriedly moved giant stage blocks from the backstage area. Everything has been assembled and prepared in advance.

To be fair, this year’s stage has a relatively simple design, more simplified than previous years, so the crew’s work is somewhat lighter. But there’s still no denying that this is a huge amount of work. At this time, the pre-prepared flight stage is lowered from above, the lights are also checked to ensure everything goes smoothly.

It can be seen that the smooth coordination of the technicians helped the stage take shape quickly.

When the stage was basically formed, hundreds of dancers in white costumes also rushed out from the backstage, standing in their predetermined positions.

After everything was completed, Rihanna and her assistant gradually walked out, stepped onto the flying stage and waited… The next part became “history”.
