The Los Angeles Chargers have finalized the lineup at the team's official 2022 NFL Draft party, DraftFest, that kicks off a week from today on Thursday, April 28 at SoFi Stadium.

The event features a pre-draft concert by legendary rap icon and 6U Inglewood Chargers youth football coach Snoop Dogg with EDM DJ, violinist and singer Esther Anaya – whose new song BAYC Feat. Snoop Dogg released yesterday – set to perform the opening set.

DraftFest is also the official draft headquarters of the Los Angeles Chargers for the opening round with the draft "war room" located in the Bolts' locker room. Prior to the start of the draft, GM Tom Telesco and Head Coach Brandon Staley will be interviewed live in-stadium by NFL Network personality Taylor Bisciotti while throughout the night, in addition to the draft's televised broadcast, exclusive live war room look-in's will be shown on SoFi Stadium's Infinity Screen.

The Chargers currently own the 17th overall selection in the first round.

Other appearances include both English-language voice of the Chargers Matt 'Money' Smith and Spanish-language voice of the Chargers Adrian Garcia-Marquez, who will join Louis G on stage to offer their insight during the evening.
