The 2026 World Cup final is expected to go down in history not only for the football but also for a grand musical spectacle. It has been announced that American superstar Madonna, Colombian icon Shakira, and the world-famous South Korean group BTS will perform during the halftime show.
The Coldplay group announced this via their social media channels. Thus, for the first time in history, a special FIFA halftime show will be organized during the 2026 World Cup final.
The final match will take place on July 19 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, USA. It is highly likely that this day will become a massive celebration for both football and show business fans simultaneously, as seeing names like Madonna, Shakira, and BTS on one stage is a monumental event.
The statement notes that Madonna, Shakira, and BTS will be the headliners of the historic show at the FIFA World Cup final in New Jersey on July 19. This performance is expected to make the World Cup final atmosphere even more vibrant, emotional, and a truly global spectacle.
The event is being organized by Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and Global Citizen. The project is not just an entertainment show but also serves a charitable purpose, aimed at raising funds for the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.
This fund aims to expand opportunities for children worldwide to receive quality education and participate in football. Therefore, the show at the World Cup final will not only provide an unforgettable experience for millions of fans but also support a socially significant initiative.
Shakira has already secured a special place in the hearts of football fans through her songs and performances related to previous World Cups. Madonna is considered one of the biggest stars in pop music history, while BTS has become one of the most powerful symbols of global youth culture and the world of K-pop.
In short, the 2026 World Cup final will not be limited to the game on the pitch. This time, the final will become a massive stage uniting football, music, charity, and global culture. History is expected to be written at MetLife Stadium on July 19 — the ball will roll, and the stage will ignite.
