Burna Boy headlines #Uefa Champions League final #UCLFinal @Pepsi_SA

The multi-platinum selling Nigerian superstar Burna Boy will be co-headlining the 2023 UEFA Champions League Final Kick Off Show by Pepsi® alongside the Brazilian artist, Anitta.


Famous for his global chart-topping hits Last Last and It's Plenty, the singer, songwriter and producer will be heating things up with energy and signature soulful vibes of afrobeats to millions of fans before the biggest club fixture in football gets under way.

With Alesso confirmed as special guest, and the multilingual Anitta is increasingly a global phenomenon, Burna Boy said he is a football fan himself, so he knows that it doesn't get any bigger than the UEFA Champions League.

"That's why I'm so excited to be performing on the Pepsi stage at this year's final. Music and football are the ultimate combination, so you already know I'll be bringing the vibes and making magic in Istanbul. The world isn't ready for what we have in store!"- Burna Boy added.

Formerly known as the UEFA Champions League Opening Ceremony, the UEFA Champions League Final Kick Off Show by Pepsi® is now in its seventh year, and its all about uniting music, sport and culture through a show-stopping performance. 

The show will be broadcast in over 200 countries and territories, as well as on UEFA.com and the official UEFA YouTube and UEFA Champions League TikTok channels.
