Tems Set to Light Up the Stage at FIFA Club World Cup Final
This July, Tems is bringing her magic to the pitch—and she won’t be doing it alone. The Nigerian songstress will join global music icons Doja Cat and J Balvin to headline a history-making performance at the FIFA Club World Cup Final. For the first time ever, the final match will include a live halftime show, and the lineup couldn’t be more exciting.
But this event is about more than just music. It’s part of a larger vision: a global effort to create opportunities through education and sport. Curated by Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, the show aims to support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, a campaign working to raise $100 million to expand learning access and youth football programs around the world.
The performance will be available to stream for free on DAZN.com, making it accessible to fans everywhere. It’s a powerful blend of rhythm, passion, and purpose.
Tems shared her excitement about the upcoming show, saying it’s about more than the spotlight—it’s about connection. “We’re creating a moment to unite people through the love of football and the spirit of music. I’m honoured to be part of something that can truly change lives. I can’t wait to share this with the world,” she said.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino also spoke about the collaboration, describing it as a milestone for both sport and humanity. “We’re coming together not just to entertain, but to inspire. This show is a celebration of what football and music can do—how they bring people together and fuel real change,” he said.
With 32 top clubs from across the globe competing—including giants like Manchester City, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and Inter Miami CF—this tournament promises high-stakes action on the field. But the halftime show? That’s shaping up to be just as memorable.
