The FIFA World Cup 2026, jointly hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico, will conclude at New Jersey Stadium in New York. Singer Justin Bieber has been added to the list of celebrities performing at the closing ceremony’s halftime show.
In 10 days, on July 19, for the first time, a Super Bowl-style halftime show will be held at the World Cup closing ceremony, where Canadian pop star Bieber will perform alongside Madonna, Shakira, and K-pop group BTS.
“Nothing else can unite the world the way the FIFA World Cup does,” said pop star Bieber. After canceling his “Justice” world tour citing health issues, Bieber had not appeared at public events for a long time. However, after a four-year break, he performed at the Coachella Festival held in California this past April.
Recalling the past, the singer of “Yukon” and “Peaches” performed his old hit numbers such as “Baby,” “Never Say,” “One Time,” and “Beauty and the Beat” along with their music videos on that stage.
This FIFA halftime show, coordinated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin, will raise funds for the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. This is a campaign working to collect $100 million for children worldwide.
To support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, the 11-minute program will also feature performances by Burna Boy and Gustavo Dudamel, while Coldplay will accompany New York’s Public School 22 (PS22) in the chorus. In 2000, music teacher Britman formed this pop-rock band with fifth-grade students from that school. They have performed collectively at events ranging from the Oscars to the White House.
Colombian pop star Shakira and Nigerian musician Burna Boy will also return to the stage together. They were among the artists who performed at the opening ceremonies in all three North American host nations. Their global hit “Die Die” has dominated music charts and has been played regularly at World Cup matches since the tournament began on June 11.
According to Nepali time, the quarterfinals will begin at 1:45 a.m. Friday with a match between France and Morocco in Boston. Similarly, in other quarterfinal matches, Spain and Belgium will face off in Los Angeles, while Norway and England will compete in Miami. Likewise, defending champions Argentina will face Switzerland in Kansas City.
