On Friday, Feb. 5, the 17th Annual NFL Sanctioned Super Bowl Gospel Celebration (SBGC) will take place at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland, CA. The annual event joins together NFL Players, top Gospel/Contemporary Christian, mainstream GRAMMY® Award-winning artists and special guests all on one stage, bringing audiences an evening of uplifting music and inspirational messages. The SBGC is one of the many events taking place in the San Francisco Bay Area in advance of the game on Sunday, Feb. 7 on CBS.

SBGC has featured artists including Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle, Yolanda Adams, Gladys Knight, Mary Mary, Fantasia, Donnie McClurkin, Anthony Hamilton, Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton & New Breed and Marvin Sapp, among many others.
Current and former NFL player participants have included Emmitt Smith, Jerry Rice, Deion Sanders, Ray Lewis, John Elway, Kurt Warner, Donovan McNabb, Coach Lovie Smith and Tony Dungy and more. The acclaimed NFL Players Choir, which features present and former NFL players, has delivered show-stopping performances year after year.
