Alessia Cara and Bebe Rexha Set to Shine in World Series Anthem Performances
Hey everyone, here’s something exciting from the world of sports and music that’s making headlines right now. For Game 2 of the World Series, we’re getting a stellar musical lineup: Canadian singer Alessia Cara will be performing Canada’s national anthem, O Canada, while pop sensation Bebe Rexha will take on the U.S. Star-Spangled Banner. This match between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers is shaping up to be historic, not just for the baseball action but also for the music.
Fans have been eagerly anticipating hearing O Canada in the World Series for the first time in more than 30 years, and now it’s happening. Alessia Cara, born in Mississauga, Ontario, is joining a short list of Canadian artists who have had this honor. If you recall, the Blue Jays — Canada’s only MLB team — only reached the World Series in 1992 and 1993, making these performances a rare and special moment for Canadian baseball fans. Back then, Michael Burgess became the first person to sing O Canada in the series, with other Canadian performers like Anne Murray, Tom Cochrane, and Rita MacNeil following over the years.

The World Series isn’t just about the anthems. On Friday night, the American gospel group Voices of Fire performed along with a local ensemble of vocalists, creating a massive, memorable opening. For Game 1, members of Toronto-area choirs, orchestras, and marching bands also joined in, making it an impressive spectacle. This weekend, fans can expect another show-stopping performance, with Alessia Cara bringing her signature style to the anthem.
And it’s not just the anthems — the entertainment continues throughout the game. The Jonas Brothers are set to perform during the match as part of a partnership with Stand Up to Cancer, adding even more excitement to the night. Fans like Patrick Yutiga from Toronto are thrilled about the celebrity lineup, calling it a “top-tier” experience, while others, like Blue Jays supporter Ben Kapito from Virginia, have been waiting decades to see the Jays in the World Series and are ready to soak it all in.
All in all, this weekend promises a mix of sports history and unforgettable music moments. With Alessia Cara and Bebe Rexha leading the anthem performances, it’s clear that the World Series is delivering more than just baseball — it’s giving fans a full-on celebration of talent, national pride, and entertainment that will be remembered for years to come.
