BTS sent the crowd into a frenzy with a historic first-ever FIFA World Cup Final halftime show performance.
On the 20th at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, USA, BTS took the stage as co-headliners for the '2026 FIFA North and Central America World Cup' Final Halftime Show alongside Madonna, Shakira, and Justin Bieber.
As the World Cup’s first Final halftime concert, the stage made history, and BTS proved their unrivaled status in the global music scene by performing shoulder to shoulder with the world’s biggest stars.
Madonna kicked things off, rolling in on roller skates and belting out 'Music.' Grabbing the baton next was BTS. Jungkook led the charge with 'Dynamite' before the members joined one by one for a powerful performance. Dressed in outfits evoking Korea’s 'Red Devils' (the South Korea national team’s supporters), they lit up the stage with 'Dynamite' to thunderous cheers.
For the grand finale, a mass singalong led by Coldplay brought all the performers — including Shakira and Justin Bieber — back on stage to belt 'We Dance.'
Meanwhile, after wrapping their Paris show at Stade de France on the 18th, BTS successfully concluded their Europe tour and are set to kick off their North American tour in New York.
