Snoop Dogg has touched down in New Zealand ahead of his show in Christchurch tonight.
The dog-father of rap was greeted with a pōwhiri on his arrival in Auckland last night and was then due to fly to Christchurch.
He is in the country for two shows - the first of which is tonight at Christchurch's Orangetheory Stadium.
He will then head back to Auckland for a show at Trusts Outdoors on Saturday night.
More than 30,000 Kiwis are set to catch a glimpse of the star on his I Wanna Thank Me Tour.
Snoop Dogg last performed in New Zealand in 2014 when he headlined Big Day Out.
