Hosted by Pat McAfee and FanDuel employee Lisa Kerney, the event will take place on Saturday February 12, just one day before the championship game. Running from 6pm PT, a number of performers will feature, including Wiz Khalifa and Ludacris.
Other names appearing include Joe Montana, Anthony Anderson, Michael Irvin, Steve Smith Sr, Emmitt Smith, Ed Reed, Brian Urlacher and Terrell Owens.
This follows the announcement that FanDuel is set to launch its sportsbook developed in partnership with Mohegan Sun in time for the Super Bowl on Sunday.
