The AFL is betting big on Snoop Dogg as the headline act for the 2025 Grand Final, aiming to create a historic halftime show. Past Grand Finals have featured unforgettable performances from both international stars (like Robbie Williams and Tina Turner) and local legends (such as John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes), each setting the bar higher for sports entertainment in Australia. As anticipation builds, the real question is whether Snoop Dogg can surpass these iconic moments and carve out his own place in Grand Final history.

Snoop Dogg & the Best Grand Final Entertainment MomentsWhy Snoop Dogg Matters in 2025


The AFL has gone all in on marketing Snoop Dogg as the headline act for the 2025 Grand Final, and it has the potential to be one of the biggest halftime shows Australia has ever seen. But will he live up to the hype? History tells us some acts have soared, while others have bombed.

Robbie Williams – AFL 2022


Robbie Williams in his pink suit turned the 2022 AFL Grand Final into a near-Super Bowl level event, capped off by a rousing rendition of You’re the Voice with Delta Goodrem.

Hoodoo Gurus – NRL 2007


No performance is more nostalgic than the Hoodoo Gurus belting out That’s My Team at the 2007 NRL Grand Final. For many fans, it’s still the soundtrack of rugby league.

The Killers & Jack Riewoldt – AFL 2017


Few moments top Richmond star Jack Riewoldt storming the stage with The Killers to sing Mr Brightside after breaking a 37-year premiership drought.

Tina Turner – ARL 1993


Simply the Best wasn’t just a song, it was rugby league’s anthem. Tina Turner’s performance at the 1993 Grand Final remains one of the most iconic cultural crossovers in Australian sport.

Johnny Farnham & Jimmy Barnes – AFL 2009


Nothing screams Aussie pride like John Farnham belting out You’re the Voice alongside Jimmy Barnes and Mark Seymour. It was a spine-tingling moment that showed why local icons still hold a special place.

Final Word


From Tina Turner to Robbie Williams, from Jack Riewoldt singing Mr Brightside to Johnny Farnham leading 100,000 fans at the ‘G, Grand Final entertainment has given us some unforgettable chapters in AFL and NRL history.

Now the question is: can Snoop Dogg top them all in 2025?
