- Bad Bunny’s odds have shortened from 2/1 to just 1/5, making him the clear market favourite.

Bad Bunny Storms to the Front of the Betting
Leading betting sites have slashed Bad Bunny’s odds to headline the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final Halftime Show to just 1/5 following industry whispers that the Puerto Rican superstar is all but confirmed.
This dramatic move from his opening price of 2/1 comes after FIFA announced that the show will be curated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin, a move that mirrors the 2025 Club World Cup Final’s star-packed halftime event featuring Coldplay, J Balvin, Doja Cat, and Tems in an 11-minute spectacular.
With the World Cup Final one of the most-watched events globally, the performer announcement will generate huge media buzz and the betting markets are already moving fast.

Who Could Challenge Bad Bunny?
While the market suggests Bad Bunny is almost a lock, there’s still speculation around other big names.
Billie Eilish’s 2/1 odds keep her firmly in the conversation, especially given her global dominance in recent years.
Taylor Swift is sitting at 3/1 and with her reputation for high-production stadium shows she remains a plausible alternative if talks with Bad Bunny stall.
Outsiders like Shakira, who famously wowed at the 2010 World Cup, and wildcard Oasis offer longer-priced punts.
