Details About the World Cup
The World Cup next year will be hosted by the USA, Canada, and Mexico, with the final match taking place on July 19, 2026, at Metlife Stadium in New Jersey. The halftime show is planned to reflect the iconic performances seen in the Super Bowl.
While preliminary shows are common in events like the Champions League final, a proper halftime performance has yet to occur in the World Cup finals.
Artists typically perform a 15-minute set during the Super Bowl halftime, often featuring surprise guests. A total of 25-30 minutes is allocated for the full show to allow for stage setup and teardown.
