Atlanta’s own Big Boi will kick off the festivities with a free concert on Decatur Square Thursday, June 11, 2026, the first day of FIFA World Cup 2026™ matches.
“As an Atlantan and huge soccer fan, performing for Decatur WatchFest ‘26 to kick off our World Cup festivities is a great honor,” said Big Boi. “I’ve seen the energy the World Cup creates and I’m excited to get the party started for music and soccer fans in my backyard!”
Concert timing and additional details will be announced in January.
