Justin Bieber joins Madonna, BTS and Shakira for FIFA World Cup final half-time show
Justin Bieber has been confirmed as the latest addition to the star-studded line-up for the 2026 FIFA World Cup final half-time show, joining Madonna, Shakira and BTS in the tournament's first-ever Super Bowl-style performance.
The 11-minute spectacle will take place on 19 July in New York and will also feature Burna Boy, conductor Gustavo Dudamel, the PS22 Chorus with Coldplay, and the Sesame Street Muppets. Curated by Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, the show will support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise 100 million dollars to improve access to education for children worldwide.
Bieber said the World Cup "brings the world together in a way nothing else can". The performance follows his return to the stage at Coachella earlier this year, marking his biggest live appearance since cancelling his Justice world tour because of health issues.
