Underwood delivered her new performance of the iconic show open at Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas, Nevada, where she took the stage for her REFLECTION residency. REFLECTION is hailed “the longest-running Las Vegas residency of any solo female country artist,” per a press release from NBC Sports on Wednesday. Underwood kicked off her residency in December 2021. She concluded the long-running series of shows in April 2025.

“We had a blast shooting the new opening at The Resorts World Theatre again,” Underwood said in a statement. “As always, Tripp [creative director Tripp Dixon] and the creative team continue to raise the bar, bringing the high energy and stunning visuals that the Sunday Night Football audience has come to expect year after year. I can’t wait for the world to see it!”

Dixon added in the press release, “for the 20th season of SNF, we wanted to set the tone for the night by reimagining the anthem sound in a way that plays to Carrie’s powerhouse vocals, while visually creating a seamless blend of stylized shots and behind-the-scenes moments evoking the national roadshow that is Sunday Night Football, week after week in the fall.”
