At around 6:45 a.m. on June 15 (Vietnam time), the opening ceremony of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 began with a special music performance from dancers and singers. Notably, the FIFA Club World Cup logo stands out right in the middle of the stadium.

The climax of the opening ceremony was when the drum team, dancers, choir and 32 young players - each representing a club participating in the tournament - stepped onto the field, carrying the team's badge. All are arranged in the words "FIFA", the symbol will be kept in the US before being moved to the FIFA Museum in Zurich, Switzerland.
