J Balvin, Doja Cat and Tems to perform at the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup Final Halftime Show
FIFA and Global Citizen announced on June 9 that J Balvin, Doja Cat and Tems will headline the inaugural halftime show of the FIFA Club World Cup final.
The championship match will take place on July 13 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
The concert, which is curated by Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, will be available to watch for free on DAZN.com.
The halftime show will support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise $100 million to provide access to quality education and soccer to children around the world. A dollar from every ticket sold for all of this year's World Cup matches this summer will go to the fund.
'From Medellín to MetLife — I'm honored to headline the first-ever halftime show of the FIFA Club World Cup final,' Balvin said in a statement. 'It's a historic moment — for me, for Latin culture, and for every kid who dreams big.'
'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 Club World Cup final!' Tems said.
The FIFA Club World Cup will feature 32 teams from around the globe. It will be played in 12 stadiums in 11 cities around the United States. The tournament kicks off June 14.

Great Britain's most successful alpine ski racer Dave Ryding to retire
The 38-year-old made history in January 2022 by becoming the first British alpine skier to win World Cup gold thanks to victory in the Kitzbuhel slalom. He hopes to compete at the fifth Winter Olympics of his career in February next year at the Milan-Cortina Games in Italy. 'Competing internationally, representing my country on the World Cup circuit, and going to four Olympic Games so far has been the privilege of a lifetime,' Ryding said in a statement. A post shared by Dave Ryding (@dave_ryding) 'I've always said that I'd only carry on for as long as I think I can perform to my best level, and making this decision now frees me up to give one last push to try and go one step further over the next season.' Lancashire-born Ryding has been a regular on the World Cup circuit since 2009 and achieved seven podium places, including his landmark gold. The slalom specialist finished sixth in the 2025 Alpine World Championships – Britain's best men's result since 1934. 'It's been one hell of a journey, and I've loved every second of it,' he said. 'Now it's time to make this final season a special one.'
