Super Bowl DJ Tiësto Talks Spinning the Big Game: ’200 Million People Watching? Yeah, That’s a Bit of Pressure’


Veteran DJ Tiesto has played countless festivals for thousands of people — but admits that his upcoming spot at the Super Bowl is 'a bit of pressure.'

But he’ll be squeezing in another set just a few hours after his regular one at the LIV Nightclub ends at around 4:30 a.m. on Sunday morning — a gig at Allegiant Stadium to perform as the pre- and in-game DJ at Super Bowl LVIII. As for the music he’s cueing up, Tiësto is leaning into the Beastie Boys’ “(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party),” which has become Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end and Taylor Swift’s beau, Travis Kelce’s theme song. Since joining the Atlantic Records roster in 2020, he has leveled up with high profile collaborations, among them, Karol G. Tate McRae, Ava Max and Ty Dolla $ign, as well Tears for Fears and Heidi Klum.
