Teddy Swims to headline NRL grand final

Teddy Swims, with over nine billion streams and a nine-time platinum hit, will launch his Australia and New Zealand tour at the NRL and NRLW Grand Final.

  • On September 10, 2025, the NRL announced via social media that Teddy Swims will headline the 2025 NRL and NRLW Grand Final at Accor Stadium on October 5, 2025.
  • NRL officials pointed to Teddy Swims' Grammy‑nominated status and over nine billion streams, saying his global appeal aligns with the league's goal to expand rugby league internationally.
  • Swims will also begin his 12 arena shows tour next month, with Aussie artist Matt Corby supporting, following weeks of rumours before NRL announced it Wednesday.
  • As a result, organisers expect the NRL entertainment program to be elevated by Teddy Swims' addition, while Jimmy Barnes likely won't perform at this year's Grand Final.
  • Fans responded on social media with praise as Teddy Swims' single Lose Control recently spent 100 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, highlighting his chart longevity.
