AFL bosses have confirmed global music icon Snoop Dogg will headline the pre-game entertainment for the 2025 Grand Final at the MCG.
The star behind hits Gin and Juice, Drop It Like It’s Hot, Beautiful and Young, Wild & Free will perform in front of 100,000 fans at the big dance in September.
Snoop has some big shoes to fill after recent memorable grand final performances from the likes of Robbie Williams, Kiss and Katy Perry.
“It’s an absolute honour to be hitting the stage at the AFL Grand Final — it’s one of the biggest events on the Aussie calendar. Can’t wait to bring the energy and celebrate with the fans. Let’s make it unforgettable,” Snoop Dogg said.
“The AFL Grand Final is the biggest event on the Australian sporting calendar — and this year, it just got a whole lot bigger,” AFL CEO Andrew Dillon said.
“Snoop Dogg is a pioneer, a performer, and a true entertainer. He’s played to packed stadiums around the world — but we think 100,000 fans at the MCG might just be his most iconic crowd yet.
“We want Grand Final Day to be an unforgettable celebration of footy — and beyond the four quarters of the match, a celebration of culture, energy, and entertainment. Snoop fits that brief better than anyone.”
The AFL will announce further additions to Grand Final entertainment closer to the date.
