Snoop Dogg is preparing a star-studded Christmas television special titled A Not-So-Silent Night: Christmas With Snoop, airing December 2 on NBC. The hour-long celebration will feature appearances from Gwen Stefani, Nicole Scherzinger, Jamie Foxx, Martha Stewart and other entertainment personalities. Musical performances and festive moments are planned around a gathering in a luxurious hotel suite. The special will be available on Peacock in the United States the following day.
Snoop Dogg is inviting some familiar faces into his Christmas celebrations for a new NBC television event. A Not-So-Silent Night: Christmas With Snoop will air Wednesday, December 2, 2026, bringing musicians, actors and comedians together for an hour of holiday entertainment. Instead of presenting a conventional concert, the rapper will host guests in a setting designed around a private festive gathering.
The show takes place in a luxurious hotel suite, where friends and loved ones will join the host for a seasonal celebration. NBC has described a program featuring musical performances and celebrity appearances, although the complete running order remains undisclosed. The hotel setting suggests a gathering built around conversation and entertainment, rather than a succession of traditional concert performances.
The announced guests include Gwen Stefani, Nicole Scherzinger, Jamie Foxx, Kristin Chenoweth, Wayne Brady, Adam Devine and Craig Robinson. Also appearing are Jane Handcock, October London and Anelise Foxx, Jamie Foxx’s daughter. Martha Stewart rounds out the guest list, bringing one of the host’s best-known longtime television collaborators into the Christmas celebration.
Not every announced guest has been identified as a musical performer. NBC has confirmed that the program will contain appearances and music, but has not specified who will sing, which songs will be performed or whether any duets are planned. Those details remain open, so the confirmed guest list should not be interpreted as an official performance schedule.
Martha Stewart’s involvement reflects a friendship that has become familiar to American television audiences. She and Snoop Dogg have shared the screen on cooking and entertainment programs, most notably Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party. Their conversations and contrasting professional backgrounds became part of the appeal of those appearances. The new special offers another opportunity to see the pair together.
Gwen Stefani is among the guests with an established connection to holiday music. She released the Christmas album You Make It Feel Like Christmas in 2017 and has since performed seasonal material in television settings. Her appearance is confirmed, but there has been no indication that she will perform any specific track from that album during the NBC broadcast.
Nicole Scherzinger brings a background spanning pop music, television and musical theater. Kristin Chenoweth has also built a substantial career across stage and screen, including Broadway productions and television appearances. Their inclusion broadens the musical backgrounds represented in the special, although the producers have not explained how each guest will be featured.
Jamie Foxx is another performer whose career crosses music, film and comedy. His daughter Anelise Foxx is also scheduled to appear. Wayne Brady, Adam Devine and Craig Robinson add established comedy and television experience to the roster. The range of guests helps explain the show’s variety-entertainment format, which has room for personalities beyond the music industry.
Jane Handcock and October London represent another connection to the host’s musical world. Both artists have been associated with the contemporary R&B and soul output around Death Row Records. Their participation adds working recording artists to a group that also includes major pop stars and actors. Details of their individual contributions have not yet been released.
The television special will follow Christmas in Rockefeller Center, NBC’s annual broadcast surrounding the lighting of the Christmas tree in New York City. Christmas With Snoop is scheduled for 10 p.m. Eastern Time on December 2, corresponding to 5 a.m. on December 3 in Greece. This time refers to the American network broadcast, not a confirmed transmission for international audiences.
The show will become available through Peacock in the United States on December 3. The streaming announcement does not establish availability in Greece or other territories where different distribution arrangements may apply. No official Greek television premiere or locally accessible streaming service has been confirmed at the time of the announcement.
Snoop Dogg has maintained a visible relationship with NBC through projects beyond his recording career. He has appeared in the network’s Olympics coverage and served as a coach on The Voice. In 2025, Death Row Pictures entered a multiyear first-look agreement with NBCUniversal covering film, television, sports entertainment and streaming projects.
The production is executive produced by Snoop Dogg and Sara Ramaker on behalf of Death Row Pictures. Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay serve as executive producers for Jesse Collins Entertainment. Their involvement places the special within a broader television production partnership rather than making it simply a one-off musical performance.
The December broadcast is also separate from the Holiday Halftime Party associated with the NFL’s Christmas Day programming on Netflix in 2025. This year’s NBC event has its own concept and production team, centered on an indoor holiday gathering with a large guest list. No previous setlist or staging details should be carried over from that earlier event.
With December 2 approaching, the announced lineup already includes major names from pop, R&B, comedy and television. What remains unknown is the exact mix of songs, conversations and performances that will fill the hour. NBC has confirmed the broadcast slot, the hotel-suite premise and the guests, with US streaming availability following on Peacock the next day.
