Nigerian music star Tems, J Balvin and Doja Cat will headline the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup’s Halftime Show, FIFA and Global Citizen announced in a statement on Monday.
The Halftime Show is set to broadcast on July 13 at MetLife Stadium.
“For the first-ever halftime show in a FIFA competition, we’re proud to partner with Global Citizen to bring together a global superstar lineup,” FIFA president Gianni Infantino said in a statement.
“Together we are going to make history on a special occasion where football and music unite the world. FIFA and Global Citizen are partnering to support a powerful cause: giving every child the chance to learn, play, and dream. Not only that, but with every ticket sold, we’re investing in their future through the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund.
“From Medellín to MetLife — I’m honored to headline the first-ever halftime show of the FIFA Club World Cup final,” J Balvin also said in a statement. “It’s a historic moment — for me, for Latin culture, and for every kid who dreams big.”
Speaking on her performance in another statement Tems said: “We’re going to bring the world together for a beautiful moment — to celebrate football, feel the unity that music brings, and improve the lives of millions of children through the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. I can’t wait — see you at the FIFA Club World Cup final!”
