On Friday, February 3, 2017, the NFL Sanctioned Super Bowl Gospel Celebration (SBGC) will kick-off Super Bowl LI with its 18th Annual star-studded music jubilation at Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas. This year's Celebration will be hosted by husband-wife duo, actors (Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns) and gospel singers David and Tamela Mann.

The annual event joins together key NFL Players, top Gospel/Contemporary Christian and mainstream GRAMMY Award-winning artists and special guests all on one stage to bring audiences an evening of uplifting music and inspirational messages. Tickets are available for purchase through Ticket Master and Ticket Servant. The concert will air on BET and Centric TV on February 5, 2017 at 11:00 AM ET/CT (special will re-air at 11:00 PM ET/CT).

Taking the stage for this year's concert will be ten-time GRAMMY Award-winning and best-selling female gospel artist of all time CeCe Winans, six-time GRAMMY Award-nominated and five-time Dove Award Female Vocalist of the Year, contemporary Christian singer Natalie Grant, and world renowned and EMMY Award-winning contemporary soul violinist Damien Escobar.

The highlight of this year's show will be the NFL Players Choir, which features 40 current and former NFL players.

Musical Director Myron Butler will also be returning this year to lead the choir.

"We founded this event to bring even more inspiration and celebration to one of the biggest events of the year - the Super Bowl," says Melanie Few-Harrison, Creator & Executive Producer of Super Bowl Gospel Celebration. "Each year we aim to touch lives in a meaningful way and make the Super Bowl Gospel Celebration bigger than the last with artists and special guests. We look forward to kicking off Super Bowl 51 in Houston and making our mark as the best most uplifting event we've had in our 18-year history!"
