In its second year, the iHeartRadio Music Festival set for Sept. 21 and 22 in Las Vegas on Monday announced its stellar lineup including Taylor Swift, Aerosmith, Rihanna, Usher, Bon Jovi, Green Day, Lil Wayne, Mary J. Blige, Pitbull, Linkin Park, P!nk, and Shakira, among others.

Actor Ryan Seacrest will host the first night’s show to promote Clear Channel’s iHeartRadio digital music service.

Last year’s debut concert featured Coldplay, Alicia Keys, Carrie Underwood, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga, and Steven Tyler, among others.

IHeartRadio reached 10 million registered users this May, a milestone that was achieved in eight months—faster than all other popular entertainment and communication platforms.
