The Rain Man star will be joined by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Billie Eilish – all the acts have been chosen for their connections to the famous West Coast city
The rapper, 52, has been a stand-out star at the Olympics this year and has been spotted at various events.
He introduced the controversial break dancing competition this year and was also spotted dressing up and enjoying the dressage and basketball.
To bridge the gap between the games, held in France this year, and the next host country, all the performers have deep connection to LA.
Global pop star Billie, 22, was born in LA and has previously revealed how it’s shaped her and her music, describing her album Happier Than Ever as a ‘love letter’ to the city.
Snoop Dogg originally hails from Long Beach and is one of the West Coast’s most famous and prolific rappers and producers while the Red Hot Chilli Peppers sprung out of LA in the 1980s.
The location of the LA performances on Sunday have not been revealed following a security clampdown after three Taylor Swift concerts were cancelled in Austria due to a bomb plot.

Earlier this afternoon the Eiffel Tower was evacuated after a man was seen climbing the iconic Paris landmark hours before the closing ceremony was due to start.
The shirtless man was seen scaling the 1,083 foot (330m) and he was spotted just above the Olympic rings adorning the second section of the monument, just above the first viewing deck.
More than 30,000 police officers have been deployed around Paris and beyond to watch over the last Olympic events and Sunday’s closing ceremony.
This comes as security authorities are on high alert after Austrian authorities managed to avoid a terrorist attack planned during the pop star’s series of shows in Vienna for her Eras Tour.
Measures have also been put in place in LA to counter potential threats from the air, land and sea as the Californian city gets ready to have the eyes of the world on them.
Organisers will be hoping the closing ceremony goes more smoothly than the opening one which was widely critcised by Christians for mocking their faith.
The showpiece drew some criticism for a banquet scene where an actor playing Greek god Dionysus took centre stage on a table with drag queens, which was interpreted to resemble Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper painting.
Some religious groups condemned the ceremony, including the Catholic Church in France who said it included ‘scenes of derision and mockery of Christianity’.
