YG Marley, Lauryn Hill, and Zion were among the entertainers who performed at the 2026 FIFA World Cup Draw in Washington, DC, bringing a strong musical highlight to the global football event.

For the first time in its history, the FIFA World Cup Final will feature a major halftime show in 2026. Inspired by the Super Bowl model, the event will include high-profile musical acts and a social cause component. FIFA President Gianni Infantino confirmed the shift, noting that the final in New Jersey will unite sport, music, and culture on an unprecedented scale.

If Jamaica wins the inter-confederation playoff tournament, the national team will earn a place in the 2026 World Cup, joining Group K with Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal, Colombia, and other participating nations.
