The final game is on July 19, 2026. For the first time, there is a big show in the half time. Famous stars perform there. Shakira and Madonna sing songs. The band BTS from South Korea is there too. Chris Martin plans the show. He works with figures from Sesame Street. The Muppets also join the show.
The FIFA wants to collect money with the show. 100 million dollars help for school and learning. The money helps football projects in the world. The game happens in a stadium near New York. It is called Met-Life-Stadium. The show is like the Super Bowl in the USA. There is always music in the pause. The pause can last longer than 15 minutes.
Scientists are very worried. It is very hot in North America in summer. The experts say: The heat is dangerous for the players. Fans can also get sick. The FIFA has rules. There are breaks to drink in each half. Some benches for players have cooling. The experts say: This is not enough. They want longer breaks or a new date.
