- On Tuesday, May 12, 2026, U2 filmed a music video for their upcoming single 'Street of Dreams' in Mexico City, performing on top of a graffitied school bus for hundreds of gathered fans.
- Notably, drummer Larry Mullen Jr. participated in the production, marking his return to band activity after back surgery forced him to miss the Las Vegas Sphere residency in 2023 and 2024.

- The band's visit coincides with the 2026 Street Child World Cup in Mexico City, a tournament featuring 30 teams that drummer Mullen praised as a 'little NGO with a big kick for kids.
