The FIFA World Cup 2026 is set to make history. For the first time ever, the World Cup Final will feature a major Halftime Show inspired by the Super Bowl tradition. The spectacular performance will take place during the break of the final match on July 19, 2026, at the MetLife Stadium in New York New Jersey.

The show will be headlined by global superstars Madonna, Shakira, and BTS. The performance is being curated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin and produced by Global Citizen, the organization known for combining world-class entertainment with social impact.

This groundbreaking Halftime Show goes beyond music. It carries a strong social purpose. All funds raised from the event will support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise $100 million to improve access to quality education and football opportunities for children around the world. In addition, one dollar from every ticket sold for any match during the 2026 World Cup will automatically go to this fund

FIFA President Gianni Infantino has described the event as “the biggest show on the planet,” highlighting its goal of elevating the World Cup experience to new heights.

The 2026 World Cup Halftime Show promises to be one of the most memorable moments in sports and entertainment history, perfectly blending football, music, and a powerful social message.
