Nigerian afrobeat superstar Davido is set to headline the 2026 FIFA World Cup Countdown Concert in Los Angeles. This highly anticipated event will feature a joint performance with Diplo and Major Lazer.

The concert is scheduled to take place just before the tournament's opening match, which kicks off in the United States on June 11. This concert is part of a live synchronized countdown series organized in collaboration with Grammy, allowing fans worldwide to stream the festival through FIFA's official platforms, including the FIFA World Cup TikTok account, which will serve as the exclusive social media livestream partner for a global audience.

Additionally, the Los Angeles concert will be complemented by similar countdown concerts in Mexico City and Toronto, with the Toronto show spotlighting artists such as Bryan Adams, Nora Fatehi, Vegedream, and Wyclef Jean, ensuring a star-studded kickoff for the world's biggest sporting event.
