Iggy Azalea Makes Special Guest Appearance At Australia's Jumanji Festival

Staff Writer

The festival will wrap up in Sydney today.

Iggy Azalea​ made a surprise appearance at the inaugural ​Jumanji Festival​ in Melbourne on Friday.

The event has been slammed in recent weeks for not featuring any female acts on the bill and the Sydney-born-US-based rapper's special guest slot was welcomed by the crowd at Melbourne Showgrounds. 

Azalea took to the stage during Tyga's set; check out fan-shot footage below. 

Jumanji was dealt a blow just hours before yesterday's festival kicked off, after US act DJ Mustard pulled out of the event and blamed promoters, tweeting, "… unfortunately the business behind this show wasn't handled properly in time for me to make it there".

Meanwhile, police confirmed in a report that 17 people were arrested in relation to alleged drug offences at the festival, including a 19-year-old male who was charged with traffic drug of dependence, possess drug, possess cannabis, possess proceeds of crime, handle stolen goods and resist police.

Jumanji wraps up at Sydney's Parramatta Park today.
