This year’s Super Bowl run-up will include much more than the mega-hip-hop lineup announced on Monday.

The first-ever Bud Light Super Bowl Music Fest will also bring Aerosmith (and a special guest) to Atlanta Feb. 1 and Bruno Mars with Cardi B Feb. 2.

All shows will take place at State Farm Arena. Tickets will go on sale at noon Nov. 9 at www.ticketmaster.com and www.superbowlmusicfest.com. Prices have not yet been announced.

The previously announced Jan. 31 event – Ludacris & Friends and Quality Control Presents – includes Migos, Lil Yachty, Lil Baby, Metro Boomin' and a DJ set from Lil Jon.

Athletes and other celebrities are expected to appear during the three days of events as well.

The concerts are part of On Location Experiences, the official hospitality partner of the NFL.
