Snoop Dogg 'in Love' with Australian Rules Football
Snoop Dogg will perform a 14-minute set with Australian artists for a 100,000-strong crowd as AFL aims to boost star power despite some controversy.
- On September 25, 2025, Snoop Dogg will headline the AFL grand final pre-game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, with the show broadcast live on Channel 7 and 7Plus.
- AFL officials point to Snoop's global pedigree, citing his Super Bowl and Olympics shows and a special video pitch featuring Robbie Williams and Katy Perry to secure him this year.
- He rehearsed privately at Marvel Stadium on Wednesday using an exact replica of the MCG stage and will perform a 14-minute set with Tash Sultana and Baker Boy.
- Public pressure grew over past lyrics and comments as critics cited misogynistic content, and the AFL faced hypocrisy accusations after banning Izak Rankine for four games.
- Public transport and airlines have ramped up services for the expected 100,000-strong crowd, with extra V/Line runs, 47 metropolitan train services, and 27 added Qantas and Jetstar flights.
