FIFA Announces First-Ever Halftime Show for 2026 World Cup Final

The historic performance, inspired by the Super Bowl, will feature multiple artists and take place at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino confirmed plans for a halftime show during the 2026 World Cup Final, marking the first such event in the tournament's history.
The show will be modeled after the NFL's Super Bowl halftime performances, which are a long-standing tradition in American football.
Coldplay's Chris Martin and band manager Phil Harvey are collaborating with FIFA to curate a lineup of artists for the event.
The 2026 World Cup Final will be held at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, with additional celebrations planned at New York City's Times Square.
FIFA aims to elevate the final weekend experience, which includes the match for third place and the championship game, by integrating entertainment and sports on a grand scale.
