Super Furry Animals, Bryn Terfel and Only Men Aloud are among those confirmed for the tribute.
Wales will play Costa Rica on 29 February, with more than 15,000 tickets sold so far for the match.
The Wales manager's body was found hanging in the garage at his home near Chester in November.
The coroner at the inquest into his death said he could not be satisfied Speed, 42, intended to kill himself.
The Football Association of Wales has said it wants the fixture to be a celebration of Speed's life.
There was an outpouring of grief in the footballing community after the death.
Fans at grounds around the country took park in tributes to the former Welsh international captain, who played for a number of Premier League clubs, including Leeds, Newcastle, Everton, and Bolton.

Space Dust #2 & Whale Trail single / Whale Trail game / UK tour
Gruff Rhys proudly presents a new double a-side single and accompanying game, in addition to a forthcoming headline UK tour.
The single is comprised of Space Dust #2 and Whale Trail. One of the many highlights of Gruff’s current Hotel Shampoo album, Space Dust #2 is a tale of short-lived, seminar-sparked romance in the form of a duet with El Perro Del Mar. The playful Whale Trail sees Gruff declaring “this is a motivational song, let’s all get along” and has been inspired by the accompanying iPhone game of the same name.
The digital double a-side single and Whale Trail game will be released on 20th Oct and a limited-edition 12” vinyl single on 31st Oct. Pre order the 12 “ single HERE.
Just like the song, the Whale Trail game is a highly addictive affair. Players pilot Willow The Whale as he flies through the skies collecting colours and points. As well as the soundtrack to Willow The Whale’s adventures, Gruff has also provided the voiceover, in Welsh. The Whale Trail app has been designed by Neil McFarland of award winning digital design studio ustwo - Neil’s previous collaborations with Gruff include artwork for Super Furry Animals’ Juxtaposed With You single and animations for the band’s innovative Rings Around The World and Phantom Power DVD albums.
