Coca-Cola‘s Anthem for the FIFA World Cup 2026 is arriving this Friday, March 6, which means soccer enthusiasts are one step closer to beginning the official countdown to the international stage out on the pitch!
The Knockturnal had the absolute pleasure of attending the exclusive Coca-Cola 2026 FIFA World Cup Anthem Listening Event for “JUMP,” and let us tell you that you’re in for a treat with the upcoming drop (which you can pre-save now!) because the song is energetic, colorful, and lively.

Global sensations J Balvin, Amber Mark, Steve Vai, and Travis Barker joined forces to create the infectious and fun tune. The accompanying captivating and animated music video was beautifully brought to life by artist McFlyy, who also designed the unique anthem artwork cover art.

During the party, attendees tried cocktails mixed with Coca-Cola including the Rum and Coke one with dark rum, Coca-Cola, ginger syrup and a lime wedge (my personal favorite) and the Cubata cocktail with dry gin, Coca-Cola, lime juice and a lemon wedge.

And as the cherry on top of the exciting gathering, J Balvin himself made a special appearance to show support for the anthem’s upcoming release, as he mingled with fans and signed the artwork and cans of Coca-Cola.

As soccer (or futbol) lovers, we fittingly arrived sporting our Croatian jerseys (being proud Croatians), which perfectly matched the event’s Coca-Cola backdrop. FIFA will be here before we know it in June and in the meantime, we’ll be singing along to “JUMP” to get game ready.
