As we prepare for the FIFA World Cup 2026, FIFA has expressed confidence that this year’s edition will be like no other. History will be made with three separate opening ceremonies held across the three host nations: Mexico, Canada, and the United States.

For decades, the World Cup has been a celebration of unity and togetherness. This year, however, the spotlight shines even brighter by merging sports, spirit, and global music. The U.S. opening show is scheduled to take place at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on June 12.

Today marks exactly one month before the tournament begins, and the countdown is on as fans prepare to see their favorites take the stage. Joining Blackpink’s LISA in the star-studded lineup are several global heavyweights.

Host Country	Venue	Headline Artists
United States	SoFi Stadium, LA	Katy Perry, Future, LISA, Anitta, Rema, and Tyla
Mexico	Mexico City Stadium	J Balvin, Tyla, Maná, Alejandro Fernández, Belinda, and Danny Ocean
