The New York-based “Saturday Night Live” kicks off its new season on September 26, and the first guest host will be one of the city’s big heroes.
Jalen Brunson, who led the New York Knicks to the NBA championship earlier this season, will appear as the first host. KATSEYE, which has emerged as one of the hottest music acts on the planet, will perform as that night’s musical guest.
Other upcoming host-performer combinations include Dakota Johnson and Turnstile on October 3, Shane Gillis and Rosalia on October 10, and Inde Navarette and Gracie Abrams on October 31.
The 2026-27 episodes will form the 52nd season of “SNL.”
