FIFA announced on Wednesday that Canadian pop singer Justin Bieber will co-headline the halftime show at the World Cup final on July 19. Bieber joins a star-studded lineup of performers including Madonna, Shakira, and BTS.
The event is a collaboration between FIFA and Global Citizen, a platform empowering millions to take action against extreme poverty. This 11-minute performance marks the first-ever halftime musical show at a World Cup final, with the aim of replicating the cultural sway of the Super Bowl.
The show will take place at the New York New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, located just outside of New York City.
