20 minutes. This time period lets athletes rest and formulate a game plan for the remaining half, allows the fans to move around the stadium without missing any action, for entertainment such as the marching band to play and for television viewers, to watch analysis of the first half, big plays from other games and to show advertisements.
It all depends on the pace of the game. As with most football, each quarter is fifteen minutes in duration. Half-time occurs when the first half an hour of actual play time expires. Typically, this is between sixty and ninety minutes.
The length of halftime has to be at least 12 minutes for High School but no longer than 20 minutes by regulation. This fluctuation in time closer to the 20 minute side is often see around certain games. Specifically, Homecoming where the home team will take the full 20 minutes allowed by the NCAA and it is not uncommon to run a bit over. I have only heard of one objection which the home time received a game penalty for the next year.
Sometimes, halftime band shows of the really impressive high rated ones have shows that are 7-8 minutes long. Typically, halftime shows are requested to be no more than 6 minutes. The smaller or horrible bands or poor quality bands have shows of 4-5 minutes as they want to limit their embarrassment. The proper answer by NCAA rules is anything between 12 and 20 minutes. The length of halftime is dictated by halftime show of bands or other events like Homecoming king queen, Hall of Fame induction and so forth.
I should also point out that Halftime can be extended beyond 20 minutes and up to 30 minutes should both football teams agree for that length. This is very rare but certain rivalry games where you have 50k to 70k fans attending the game makes logistics hard for halftime when normally games are generally much less than that. The extra 10 minutes is for fans and give bands an easier time to navigate through heavy packed stadium as High school stadiums across much of the USA were built 70-90 years ago and did not plan for spectators over 15-20k max
