The FIFA World Cup Final is ready to break new ground with the introduction of the first-ever Super Bowl-type halftime show featuring some top names in the world of music. This show will take place during the FIFA World Cup Final 2026, which will be played between Spain and Argentina on July 19 at New York New Jersey Stadium.

The entire show has been curated by Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin, along with Global Citizen, where music and entertainment are enjoyed together on the same platform. The halftime show is a major change from the past as it creates a new entertainment segment in the world of football.

An Interaction of Stars

Spread out through the halftime show are performers from all walks of life, namely, Justin Bieber, BTS, Madonna, and Shakira. Other great performances are given by Burna Boy, conductor Gustavo Dudamel, and the PS22 Chorus along with Coldplay members.
To add an engaging touch, popular characters from the beloved Sesame Street and The Muppets will be making an appearance on the show so that the show can capture the perspectives of audiences of all age groups.


When Will The FIFA World Cup Halftime Show Begin?


The FIFA World Cup Final will commence at exactly 3:00 p.m. ET on Sunday, July 19. After the start of the game at that time, the halftime show is expected to start between 3:45 p.m. and 3:50 p.m. ET. The halftime show has not been scheduled, according to FIFA, because of the stoppage time regulation in soccer games. Those keen on seeing the performances are advised to tune into the show before 3:45 p.m. ET.

Length of Performance and Discussion


The length of the halftime performance is expected to be around 11 minutes, which is similar to that of the Super Bowl halftime show. The period of halftime interval is expected to be around 30 minutes so that the stage crew gets to set and tear down the stage.
