The 2026 FIFA World Cup final at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, will feature a historic halftime show on July 19, the first in World Cup history. The star-studded lineup includes Justin Bieber, Shakira, Madonna, Burna Boy, and BTS, with Coldplay's Chris Martin serving as curator. Shakira and Burna Boy previously performed the official World Cup song 'Dai Dai' at the opening ceremony. The show will also feature Venezuelan conductor Gustavo Dudamel, Coldplay, a New York elementary school choir, and characters from Sesame Street and the Muppets. FIFA and Global Citizen aim to raise up to $100 million for global education and football projects. The halftime show is scheduled to last 11 minutes with 4 minutes for setup and teardown, keeping the break within the usual 15 minutes. Organizers have assured that the pitch will not be damaged.
