If you’re going to watch the match between Mexico and South Korea this Thursday, get ready—because in addition to the soccer, there will be a really fun moment: a massive “Gangnam Style” dance in Guadalajara.
This event is not official; it’s being organized by fans, who are using social media to call for this mass dance to the iconic song by South Korean artist PSY.
The idea is for hundreds of people to come together to perform the famous dance routine and turn the match between the two teams into a true World Cup celebration.
When will the “Gangnam Style” mass dance take place in Guadalajara?
The event is scheduled for June 18, 2026, the day Mexico and South Korea will face off in the World Cup group stage.
According to the calls circulating on social media, the dance will take place during halftime, around 8:00 p.m.
Some groups are also proposing to repeat the dance routine at the end of the match.
Where will it take place?
The main gathering spot will be the FIFA Fan Fest in Guadalajara, located in the Historic Center, where a large crowd of fans will gather to watch the match on a giant screen.
However, social media users are also suggesting replicating the event in the area surrounding the stadium and at various bars and restaurants throughout the city.
Can you imagine hundreds of people dancing to “Gangnam Style” at the same time?
Tips for Attendees
If you plan to join the dance at the FIFA Fan Fest, we recommend arriving early, as large crowds are expected for this match.
They also suggest practicing the choreography and wearing comfortable clothes, along with a Mexican national team jersey or something related to South Korea.
Finally, it’s recommended to use public transportation—especially Light Rail Lines 1, 2, and 3—to avoid complications caused by heavy traffic and a lack of parking.
