Jr. Raiderettes, Jabbawockeez, Lalah Hathaway highlight gameday entertainment as Las Vegas Raiders host the Dallas Cowboys

The world-famous dance crew, Jabbawockeez, will take the stage at Allegiant Stadium for halftime this Saturday when the Las Vegas Raiders face the Dallas Cowboys.

The Jabbawockeez first gained fame in their national television appearance on “America’s Got Talent” in 2006, before winning the MTV Hip Hop reality series, “Randy Jackson Presents America’s Best Dance Crew (ABDC)” in March 2008. The crew uses their signature plain white masks and gloves to guide the audience’s attention away from individual identities and toward a unified group. Known for their creativity, one-of-a-kind choreography, athleticism and intricate synchronization, each member brings a different technique and perspective to form the original style that makes the Jabbawockeez so distinct. Jabbawockeez performs Wednesday to Monday at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino. mgmgrand.com.

Lalah Hathaway, a five-time Grammy Award-winning artist, singer, songwriter and producer, will perform the National Anthem prior to kickoff. As daughter of the late, great Donny Hathaway and the product of an incredibly musical family, Chicago-born and raised Hathaway has the most soulful of music running through her veins. Having been covered by Billboard, VIBE, Essence, NPR and the New York Times, Lalah also held the No. 1 Adult R&B song of 2016 and was shortlisted for Best Original Song at the 2021 Oscars.

Pregame, the Raiderettes and Junior Raiderettes will perform a special routine. The signature Junior Raiderettes program, held annually during the preseason, allows 200 aspiring young dancers to fulfill their dream of performing on the field with the Raiderettes. Established in 1998, this cherished tradition continues to inspire and excite participants each year. For more information, visit www.raiderettesthestudio.com.
