We’re just about to enjoy the World Cup opening ceremony, which is set to feature acts from Belinda, Burna Boy, Danny Ocean, J Balvin, Lila Downs, Los Ángeles Azules, Maná and Shakira.
The FIFA press release also tells me that Ryan Castro will join J Balvin on stage for a special performance.
Good for them.
Alejandro Fernández, known as “El Potrillo” by his fans and one of the biggest selling Latin artists of all time, will sing the Himno Nacional Mexicano.
Meanwhile the Queen of Popiano, Tyla, will sing Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika.
There will be three opening ceremonies across the three host nations, with events in Canada and the USA tomorrow.
The crowd is certainly building at the Azteca – this is one stadium at this World Cup that won’t have any empty seats, especially when El Tri are playing.
