Robbie Williams, a former member of “Take That,” will take the stage to kick off the tournament in Qatar, much as he did in Russia four years prior. The main vocalist of the Korean pop band BTS, Jungkook, will also play at the Al Bayt Stadium.
FIFA has also confirmed that Nigerian singer, Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe, better known by his stage name, Kizz Daniel, will perform at the FIFA Fan Festival event in Doha on November 23. Also, award-winning singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, is featured in the Qatar 2022 World Cup official theme song titled ‘Hayya Hayya (Better Together)’ alongside US star Trinidad Cardona and Qatari sensation Aisha. This will be played throughout the World Cup competition.
