UEFA and Pepsi MAX® are excited to reveal that GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum, and chart-topping singer/songwriter, Camila Cabello will headline this year’s UEFA Champions League final Opening Ceremony presented by Pepsi MAX.

The 5-minute performance is set to be a breath-taking carnival-themed celebration, brought to life through a stunning display of costumes, dancers and musicians, choreographed to deliver a high-energy spectacular to fans in the stadium, and at home, live from the Stade de France in Paris on Saturday 28th May. The Opening Ceremony production will see her perform a medley of her chart-topping hits alongside new releases from the highly-acclaimed third studio album ‘Familia’.
Camila Cabello commented: “I’m so excited to be taking to the stage at UEFA Champions League final in Paris this month! I intend on putting on a really special show, bringing together the spirit of my Latin heritage and a feeling of togetherness for sports and music fans all over the world - I can’t wait!”
To announce Camila’s performance at the UEFA Champions League final, Pepsi MAX shared a short video via its YouTube channel offering a glimpse of what fans can expect in Paris. In the clip, Camila is surrounded by a developing avenue of playful animations and floral patterns, which take inspiration from the iconic Oaxaca carnival in Mexico. The vibrant colours have purposefully been used to channel the feeling of togetherness and celebrate people of all walks of life coming together, showcasing how the power of music and sport can unite people all around the world.
