The legendary British-American band have been added to the iHeartRadio Music Festival on 21 and 22 September, which already boasts Justin Timberlake, Mariah Carey, Imagine Dragons and many more.
It will be Fleetwood Mac's first time performing with Finn and former Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers guitarist Mike Campbell. The announcement arrives ahead of a tour that kicks off in October. Lindsey Buckingham, who joined the band in 1975 and was present through its most successful incarnation, was fired in April.
The iHeartRadio festival has traditionally included a veteran act on its line-up. In previous years, Aerosmith, Queen + Adam Lambert and Billy Idol have held that slot. This year, Lynyrd Skynyrd will also be featured.
"It is an honour to be performing at the iHeartRadio Music Festival for our very first time," said vocalist Stevie Nicks.
"The beauty of an event like this is that it is a true representation of the power of radio. It's an opportunity for artists across all genres to share one stage and what we all love most - music!"
