Lisa is set to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, adding another major global event to the K-pop star’s growing solo career.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino announced through his official account that the opening ceremony in Los Angeles will showcase the massive scale of the upcoming tournament. He said the opening ceremony in Los Angeles, the entertainment capital of the world, will show just how enormous the 2026 World Cup would be.
According to the FIFA president, the LA ceremony lineup includes Katy Perry, Future, Anitta, Lisa, Rema and Tyla, with additional performers expected to be announced later.
Lisa is also reportedly preparing to release an official World Cup soundtrack alongside Anitta, Rema and Brazilian music group Tropkillaz.
The announcement comes shortly after Lisa drew attention for her solo appearance at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2026, further cementing her status as one of K-pop’s most globally recognized performers.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is hosted jointly by the United States, Canada and Mexico. Opening ceremony performances are also expected to take place in Canada and Mexico in addition to the main event in Los Angeles.
