Queen Latifah began the show with a cover of Taio Cruz's hit song Dynamite. Her performance ended with an all-fire cue that included silver mines, comets, and white flash with bang to kick off the show.

Kid Rock who is set to commence his Born Free Tour performed God Bless Saturday Night, which included various flames and pyrotechnics that were incorporated into the stage set. Pyrotek collaborated with Elia Popov implementing a four-way flame rack which was cued by Pyrotek's Operator Kevin Hughes who worked alongside Pyrotechnician Dimitri Timohovich. The performance which included large columns of flame was capped off with a 20 second Silver Gerb waterfall positioned upstage.
