Episode Details

The FIFA World Cup’s halftime show is turning into a global music spectacle, featuring Justin Bieber, Madonna, Shakira, BTS, Burna Boy, Gustavo Dudamel, and the PS22 Chorus—all curated by Chris Martin of Coldplay. Set for July 19th during the final, this 11-minute performance aims to raise $100 million for education and soccer programs via the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. Burna Boy’s inclusion is especially meaningful—he’s on the official World Cup anthem “Dai Dai” with Shakira and sees it as a proud moment to represent Africa. With Coldplay, Muppets (Kermit and Miss Piggy), and a blend of Afrobeats and Latin rhythms, this is the first major halftime-style show for soccer, blending entertainment with purpose in a way never seen before.
