Mars has sold over 200 million singles worldwide, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time. Recently Mars accepted Album Of The Year on behalf of the duo An Evening with Silk Sonic during the 2022 BET Awards.

His 64th Annual GRAMMY win for Record of the Year, makes him only the second artist in Grammy history to win the category three times.
"As our final act after many years of memorable Galas and most importantly raising funds for various charities, we couldn't be more excited to host Bruno Mars, one of the most exciting entertainers in music today. We can't wait to celebrate Derby 150 with all of our guests," said Sklenar.
