\n

FIFA has announced that, for the first time, the final at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on July 19 will include a Super Bowl-style concert.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The governing body said the show would support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which is raising $100 million to help children access education and soccer.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

FIFA president Gianni Infantino said it would bring together \u201cmusic and football on the biggest stage in sport for a very special cause.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\u201cEvery child should have the opportunity to dream, and together we can help make that possible,\u201d he posted on Instagram alongside a video that featured Elmo from “Sesame Street” and Coldplay’s Chris Martin.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Martin will curate the show.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Super Bowl is famed for its halftime show, which attracts the world’s biggest stars for spectacular performances. This year featured Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny.<\/p>\n

\n

Previous headliners included Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, Madonna, Prince, Bruce Springsteen and Rihanna.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

But halftime shows are not so commonplace in soccer, with events such as the Champions League final featuring a pre-match concert. This year will see the Killers headline European club soccer’s biggest game between Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal in Budapest.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

FIFA describes its halftime show as \u201ca singular moment at the intersection of sport, culture and purpose, broadcast live around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

This year’s World Cup is co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico and runs through June and July.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
