Justin Timberlake joins a special Thanksgiving episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on November 26, 2026, on NBC. The special airs at 11:35 p.m. ET and is available on Peacock after its November 26, 2026, broadcast.
Justin Timberlake brings a Rainbow Room performance to NBC
NBC’s Thanksgiving announcement says Jimmy Fallon and Timberlake team up for music and comedy during the holiday episode. Timberlake also performs from the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center, marking the first time The Tonight Show has broadcast from the venue.
The network places the program on Thanksgiving night, November 26, 2026, and lists a Peacock stream after the NBC broadcast. The booking combines a late-night collaboration with a performance in New York City under the Rainbow Room’s distinctive setting.
Justin Timberlake’s catalog meets the Thanksgiving special
The episode’s anniversary focus centers on FutureSex/LoveSounds, an album closely associated with Timberlake’s solo catalog. NBC connects the project with songs including SexyBack, My Love and What Goes Around... Comes Around.
The television booking puts that album focus beside Timberlake’s established creative partnership with Fallon. The November 26, 2026, program therefore gives the singer a setting for both conversation and performance while keeping music at the center of the holiday format.
Justin Timberlake’s Memphis roots and solo catalog
The Recording Academy biography identifies Timberlake as born in Memphis, Tennessee, and says he moved into solo music after *NSYNC. His solo album list includes Justified, FutureSex/LoveSounds, The 20/20 Experience and Man of the Woods.
That history gives the November 26 program a direct musical through line. The Rainbow Room performance centers an artist whose solo catalog spans several full-length releases and whose best-known work remains closely tied to televised performance.
