On the same day, he also gave a surprise performance for a small group of VIP guests, which quickly ignited more speculation about his future live appearances in the World Cup.<\/p>\n<h2>Bieber has returned to the stage in unusual ways<\/h2>\n<p>Since the start of 2026, Justin Bieber has made several live singing appearances. He performed at the Grammy Awards wearing only boxers and socks while playing an electric guitar, and he later headlined Coachella, performing tracks from the SWAG and SWAG II albums as well as a YouTube segment featuring his older hits. The performances felt stripped-back and unconventional, but they reminded Beliebers (Justin Bieber fans) that he is still interested in performing live. With these appearances,\u00a0 signs that the \u201cSorry\u201d hitmaker was preparing for a major tour started swirling around on social media. However, TMZ reported that sources close to Justin said he prefers performing in smaller doses rather than committing to a full tour schedule.<\/p>\n<h2>A World Cup appearance would fit his current approach<\/h2>\n<p><iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: SWAG LIVE FROM COACHELLA (Weekend II)\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/4Wa07ZTBEshnd57JomGmij?si=HwiEArLFRp2a9rDWqliFXw&amp;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>A halftime performance at the FIFA World Cup Final would allow the songwriter to appear on one of the world\u2019s biggest stages without recalling his lengthy touring days of the past. That seems to match the approach described by sources close to the artist, who say he enjoys performing occasionally while maintaining a more flexible schedule. Justin Bieber has also been releasing live recordings from his recent live appearances. After dropping Swag Live From Coachella (Weekend I) on June 26, 2026, he followed up with a live album from Coachella\u2019s second weekend on July 3, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discussions are reportedly taking place Justin Bieber is reportedly in discussions to perform during the halftime show at the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final.
