M6 and beIN Sports will broadcast the half-time concert during the 2026 World Cup final at MetLife Stadium on 19 July.
The Times reports that ITV and the BBC are considering not showing the show on their linear channels, instead carrying it only on their platforms to prioritise first-half analysis.

FIFA is organising the spectacle, conceived by Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, with performances from Madonna, Shakira and K-pop group BTS.
The organiser has not yet confirmed the precise duration, which could extend beyond the usual 15-minute interval to around 25 minutes.
Across the tournament, M6 will air 54 matches free-to-air, while beIN Sports will show all 104 games on pay TV.
