Double Gee is heading to the G as Snoop Dogg has been announced as the pre-game performer at the AFL Grand Final, which kicks off at 2:30 p.m. on September 27th, 2025. This will be Snoop's biggest Australian show ever, performing in front of 100,000-plus fans at the MCG, Australia's largest stadium. While it's unlikely that he'll be performing with Raygun on stage, the AFL CEO, Andrew Dillon, wants to find a homegrown act to pair with Snoop. 'He's been at the Super Bowl, performed at the Olympics, but he's also very famous for his collaborations, so I think if we're looking for Australian artists, there'll certainly be one who will be featured on grand final day,' he said. Does Snoop Dogg know anything about AFL? No, but Dillon said he's a bit of a Bulldogs fan. 'I understand he follows the Western Bulldogs, so I'm not sure he's necessarily an aficionado, but he certainly knows about the game.'

It was such a disaster that our very own Nick Hall wrote an opinion piece, '10 AFL Grand Final Acts That Would Be Better (and Probably Cheaper) Than Katy Perry,' which included names like ONEFOUR, The Whitlams, Silverchair, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, and The Chats. Hopefully, one of these artists gets the call-up on stage with Snoop, and the natural fit would be ONEFOUR, who are performing their first Sydney Headline show on September 6th 2025. Snoop will join past performers Perry, Robbie Williams, and The Killers, and the rapper says he's honoured to be here. 'It's an absolute honour to be hitting the stage at the AFL Grand Final,' the artist said in a statement. '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.' The federal government previously banned the rapper from entering the country on the grounds of character after he was convicted of drug and firearms offences in the U.S. However, that ban was lifted in 2008, and the rapper has performed in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide as part of his 'I WANNA THANK ME' Tour.
