EDGE READ TIME: 1 MIN.

On Saturday, October 22, stars come together for the fourth annual We Can Survive concert, in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In his first concert since Super Bowl 50, Bruno Mars will headline the events, which will also feature performances by Meghan Trainor, Ariana Grande, Charlie Puth, G-Eazy, OneRepublic, and Pitbull. The event will take place at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.

"The star power of this year's lineup is a testament to the ever-growing popularity of We Can Survive," said Chris Oliviero, Executive Vice President of Programming, CBS Radio. "Now in its fourth year, CBS Radio is proud to bring together today's biggest artists and their passionate fans in raising awareness for such a worthy cause, all at the iconic Hollywood Bowl."

In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, $2 of each ticket sale will benefit the Young Survival Coalition, the lead organization dedicated to the critical issues unique to young women diagnosed with breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide and the second-most common cancer overall.

This is the second year of participation for Grande, the TV star turned pop singer, having performed in 2014. Past year's concert headliners have included Rihanna, Maroon 5, Taylor Swift, Pharrell Williams and Katy Perry.

This year, the web video series "Survivor Stories" will showcase some members of the Young Survival Coalition sharing their experiences with breast cancer.
