Snoop Dogg will be performing at a series of Sydney venues in the aftermath of his AFL Grand Final appearance.

Immediately after his gig at the MCG he is set to board a plane to Sydney for a gig in the Hills District.

The night of September 27, which is the day of the AFL Grand Final, he will do a one-hour DJ set at Bella Live in Bella Vista.

“This is your chance to see the global icon up close — in The Hills,” an Instagram post from the website read.

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday at 10am.

The rapper will then perform a DJ set at the Greenwood Hotel in North Sydney on Sunday night.

Pre-sales for the event don’t begin until 6pm the day before, with the price not yet revealed.

It comes as he comes under fire for his homophobic remarks in both his music and a recent podcast.

Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young called for Snoop’s AFL performance to be cancelled.

“Why is it that the AFL is bringing in an international artist — a slur merchant — paying them $2 million, rather than backing Aussie talent?” she said.

“The AFL has decided for the grand final, rather than putting on an Australian artist, they’re going to pay Snoop Dogg $2 million to play at the Grand Final.”

The AFL has been criticised for the hypocrisy of booking the rapper at the same time it suspended a star player over an on-field homophobic slur.

Crows forward Izak Rankine was suspended for four games, costing the star a role in a likely finals run for Adelaide.
