Justin Bieber will play the ultimate halftime show at the 2026 FIFA World Cup Finals.
Bieber will join a globe-spanning set of co-headliners: Madonna, Shakira, and BTS. Other performers include Burna Boy, LA Philharmonic music director Gustavo Dudamel, and the famous PS22 Chorus from Staten Island, who have gone viral for their covers of Björk and Kate Bush.
Coldplay's Chris Martin curated the performance and Coldplay is also featured on the stacked line up (which even includes The Muppets).
“The FIFA World Cup is one of the few moments that truly brings the entire world together," says Burna Boy via a press release. "To represent Africa on the first-ever FIFA World Cup Final Halftime Show is a privilege and a responsibility that I don't take lightly. I'm honored to be part of a performance that not only celebrates football and culture, but also helps create greater opportunities for children through education around the world."
Burna Boy already performed on the World Cup stage during its opening, alongside co-headliner Shakira, with their joint song "Dai Dai" — the official song of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
