Robbie Williams is preparing to take the stage during the halftime show at Soccer Aid 2026 as the charity football event celebrates its 20th anniversary.

The former Take That singer will perform at London Stadium on Sunday, May 31, during the annual fundraiser, where celebrities and sports stars representing England and the World go head to head in support of UNICEF.

More information about Robbie’s performance, including which song he plans to perform, is expected to be revealed closer to the event.

Soccer Aid was launched in 2006 by Robbie Williams and TV presenter and actor Jonathan Wilkes. Since its creation, the event has raised more than £121 million for UNICEF programs supporting vulnerable children across the globe.

Money raised from the match, along with public donations, will go directly toward UNICEF U.K.’s efforts to provide clean water, vaccinations, emergency relief, and education to children and families in need.

This year’s match is expected to feature a wide range of celebrities and athletes, including Tom Hiddleston, Damson Idris, Adolescence breakout star Owen Cooper, and singer Olly Murs, who recently completed his own charity endurance challenge.

Also joining the lineup are Wayne Rooney, GK Barry, Usain Bolt, Angry Ginge, Jordan North, Joe Marler, Paddy McGuinness, Tom Grennan, Richard Gadd, Maisie Adam, and Gladiators star Nitro.

The 2026 edition of Soccer Aid will once again be hosted by UNICEF U.K. Ambassador Dermot O’Leary alongside sports broadcaster Alex Scott, with the event airing live on ITV1 and ITVX.
