Musical performances, colour, and fan excitement precede the World Cup's opening game in Mexico City.
Shakira was among the performers during the opening ceremony of the 2026 World Cup at the Mexico City Stadium ahead of the opening game between Mexico and South Africa.
Pop star Shakira led a line-up of Latin singers who helped open the biggest ever World Cup before the opening match between co-hosts Mexico and South Africa on Thursday. The storied Azteca Stadium - officially known at the Mexico City Stadium during the World Cup - hosted the party and has been renovated for the expanded tournament, which is being co-hosted with the United States and Canada.
