The spectacular halftime show for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final will take place on Sunday, July 19, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey at 3:00 p.m. ET, featuring global superstars like Madonna, Shakira, and BTS, and curated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin.
For the first time at the FIFA World Cup, the halftime show will support the FIFA Global Citizenship Education Fund, a flagship initiative that aims to raise $100 million to expand access to quality education and soccer for children around the world. Throughout the tournament, $1 from every ticket sold for the 2026 FIFA World Cup matches will be donated to the Fund.
This will be the first time a halftime show has been held during a World Cup Final.
While Katy Perry will headline the opening ceremony in the United States on June 12 at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, J Balvin will do so in Mexico City, and Bublé, Alanis Morissette, and Alessia Cara will headline in Toronto.
