Bad Bunny’s hottest local Super Bowl pregame is at the Chicago Public Library

The library? Yes, the library is hosting a series for Chicagoans to learn about Puerto Rican history ahead of Bad Bunny’s historical Super Bowl halftime show performance this weekend.

By Ambar Colón Feb 3, 2026, 3:30am PST

It’s a big week for Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, known professionally as Bad Bunny.

After making Grammy history as the first Spanish-language album of the year winner, the world’s most-streamed male artist is now prepping for his Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.

While many Chicagoans are getting ready to watch the halftime show from the bar or at home, the real local pregame is at the Chicago Public Library, which is hosting a cultural program that explores Puerto Rican history through music.

“Bad Bunny x Super Bowl: Beats and History”
When: 6 p.m. on Feb. 3 and 2 p.m. on Feb. 6
Where: West Belmont and Harold Washington branches
Tickets: Free with registration
Info: chipublib.bibliocommons.com

The event is a part of the library’s ongoing “One Book, One Chicago” initiative.

More than 300 people have attended the virtual and in-person events at various Chicago Public Library branches, with folks tuning in from as far as New Jersey and Florida.

In the library program, Colón breaks down Puerto Rico’s long history of resistance to a soundtrack of songs from Bad Bunny’s “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS” alongside musical movements that predate the singer.

The program incorporates the work of historian Jorell Meléndez-Badillo, a professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and author of “Puerto Rico: A National History.”

Meléndez-Badillo worked closely with Bad Bunny to create text-based music videos for each of the 17 tracks on “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.” The professor’s notes, written in Spanish only, detail the work and lives of several Puerto Rican individuals and important social justice movements in the archipelago’s history.
