Rap legend and entertainment icon Snoop Dogg is headlining a brand-new television event for the 2026 holiday season. On November 13, 2026, NBC announced the one-hour variety special titled A Not-So-Silent Night: Christmas With Snoop, set to air on Wednesday, December 2. The festive program will broadcast live during prime-time television following the network's annual Christmas in Rockefeller Center tree-lighting ceremony, with next-day streaming available on Peacock.
Set inside a luxurious hotel suite, the holiday special promises a festive mix of musical performances, comedic sketches, and seasonal celebrations. Snoop Dogg will act as executive producer through his banner Death Row Pictures, alongside Jesse Collins Entertainment. The star-studded guest lineup features an array of longtime friends and celebrity collaborators, including Martha Stewart, Gwen Stefani, Jamie Foxx, Wayne Brady, Kristin Chenoweth, Adam Devine, October London, Craig Robinson, and Nicole Scherzinger.
Snoop Dogg's collaboration with NBC continues a highly successful corporate partnership. The Grammy-nominated artist previously captured global attention as a prime-time commentator during NBC's Olympic broadcast coverage and served as a coach on the network's hit singing competition series The Voice. Furthermore, his recurring work alongside lifestyle mogul Martha Stewart on television projects has made him a household favorite across diverse viewing demographics.
Beyond television hosting, the West Coast hip-hop pioneer maintains a busy schedule as an entrepreneur, recording artist, and media executive. Since purchasing Death Row Records in 2022, he has focused on expanding the historical hip-hop label into film production, digital entertainment, and seasonal consumer products. His previous musical holiday offerings, such as his 2008 album Christmas in Tha Dogg House, underscore his ongoing penchant for seasonal entertainment.
With production nearing completion, A Not-So-Silent Night is positioned as a central piece of NBC's holiday programming strategy. Fans can anticipate unique musical collaborations and classic holiday banter as Snoop Dogg brings his trademark charm to prime-time network television this December.
