The Official FIFA World Cup 2026 Album arrives tomorrow, June 5, featuring 18 tracks from global superstars including Shakira, Burna Boy, LISA, Anitta, Rema, Future, and Tyla. The album marks the most extensive multi-track music project ever created for a World Cup, bringing together artists across continents and genres to unite fans worldwide ahead of the tournament’s June 11 kickoff.

Quick Facts

  • Release date: June 5, 2026
  • Total tracks: 18 songs
  • Official song: “Dai Dai” by Shakira and Burna Boy
  • Largest World Cup album project in history

A Star-Studded Roster Across Genres

The album showcases collaborative partnerships that reflect the artists’ multicultural diversity. “Goals” unites LISA, Anitta, and Rema on a high-energy track, while “Game Time” pairs Future and Tyla. Other standout collaborations include “Illuminate” by Jessie Reyez and Elyanna, “Blessings” featuring Stormzy, Fridayy, and Angel, and “No Place Like Home” by Major Lazer, Nelly Furtado, and Davido.

The album also honors iconic legacy with The Rolling Stones contributing “In the Stars (Remix).” Other notable artists include Daddy Yankee, Alejandro Fernández, Jelly Roll, Carín León, Nora Fatehi, Ayra Starr, Latto, Shaggy, and IShowSpeed, whose track “Champion” appears on the project.

Building Momentum Before the Tournament

The rollout began in March 2026 with “Lighter” by Jelly Roll and Carín León, followed by singles released over the past three months. “Dai Dai,” the central tournament anthem featuring Shakira and Burna Boy, dropped on May 15 and serves as the theme for the FIFA Education Fund. The song’s music video, released May 23, featured cameos from football stars including Lionel Messi.

Fans will experience many album tracks live during Countdown Concerts in Mexico City, Toronto, and Los Angeles, as well as at opening ceremonies across the three host nations. The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from June 11 to July 19, with matches held in Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

A Historic Moment for World Cup Music

According to FIFA president Gianni Fantino, “The Official FIFA World Cup 2026 Album features artists from across continents, languages and genres in a project designed to unite fans worldwide through the power of music and football.” This approach mirrors the 2022 Qatar tournament, which also featured a multi-song official soundtrack rather than a single anthem.

The album will be available across all major streaming platforms. Additionally, Shakira, BTS, and Madonna are set to perform during the halftime show at the final match, scheduled for MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
