Five international, award-winning musicians will perform on the Qatar 2022 FIFA Fan Festival™ mainstage as part of the FIFA Sound line-up. Diplo (US) on November 22, Kizz Daniel (Nigeria) on November 23, Nora Fatehi (Canada) on November 29, Trinidad Cardona (US) on December 1 and Calvin Harris (Scotland) on December 10.

These artists are all slated to enrich the great programme of the FIFA Fan Festival over the 29 days of the tournament at Doha’s Al Bidda Park, among more than 20 additional top-level entertainers from around the world performing at the event.

The FIFA Fan Festival will provide new ways for fans to celebrate their shared passion for football while experiencing the best in music, entertainment, local culture, food, games and lifestyle in a true festival environment.

“We look forward to bringing together some of the world’s biggest artists on one stage in Doha to celebrate the beautiful game and create a truly electric atmosphere,” said RedOne, FIFA’s Entertainment Executive.

“While these artists come from different backgrounds and musical genres, they are connected by a shared passion for music and football, like our fans. The FIFA Fan Festival will have something for every kind of fan and we’re excited for what’s ahead,” RedOne added.

The artists commented:

“I’ve been really fortunate to travel all over the world and experience different cultures through music. Wherever I’m, Jamaica, Spain, England, China, South Africa, etc., football is a social constant. Seeing so many fans from all over the world in one place – the FIFA Fan Festival is just awesome. Really looking forward to it!” – Diplo

“When you have a dream, you’ve got to grab it and never let go. Let’s all dream together at the FIFA Fan Festival in Doha and make it a once in a lifetime experience!” – Kizz Daniel

“The FIFA Fan Festival will be an amazing experience. Fans from all over the world will be introduced to Arab culture, which is also part of my story – we can celebrate a great football party all together. Our team is preparing many surprises to provide a historic performance – be excited!” – Nora Fatehi

“For me as a young artist, it’s the greatest pleasure to be able to perform in front of such a huge crowd of fans from all over the world. Just like football, music unites people and I’m happy to be able to contribute to this at the FIFA Fan Festival – it‘s going to be epic!” – Trinidad Cardona
