How long the halftime show will run during the World Cup final on July 19. Justin Bieber, Madonna, Shakira, and BTS are co-headlining the performance, with Burna Boy and characters from Sesame Street and The Muppets also set to appear. Chris Martin of Coldplay curated the lineup; the band will perform alongside the PS22 Chorus. 

Super Bowl halftime shows typically run 12 to 14 minutes, with less than 10 minutes allotted for stage setup and breakdown on both sides of the performance. 

The show, the first of its kind at a World Cup final, is being produced by Global Citizen as part of the organization’s work with FIFA on an initiative to expand access to education and soccer opportunities for children.
