In the title compound, [CdBr(2)(C(12)H(12)N(2))(C(2)H(6)OS)], the Cd(II) atom is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry by two N atoms from one 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (DMBP) ligand, one O atom from a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) ligand and two Br atoms. A weak intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs between the DMBP and DMSO ligands. π-π stacking between pyridine rings [centroid-centroid distances = 3.682 (3) and 3.598 (3) Å] is observed in the crystal.
