The 2026 FIFA World Cup will take place in Canada, and several prominent Canadian musicians are joining forces to celebrate the event. Canada Soccer announced a program on Tuesday featuring top musical talents contributing to an album tied to the tournament, which will be hosted in Toronto, Vancouver, and 14 other North American cities.
These artists are collaborating under the direction of Grammy-winning producer Boi-1da.
“The energy around this project has been incredible. It’s inspiring to see so many iconic Canadian artists come together. What we’re creating isn’t just an album, it’s a cultural statement. The music represents every corner of the country, and I’m proud of how collaborative and inclusive the process has been,” said Boi-1da.
The album will include original songs, re-imagined tracks, and unique collaborations with some of Canada’s most celebrated musicians. It is scheduled for release before the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which begins next June across North America.
