​The groundbreaking music and inspiration extravaganza "Super Bowl Soulful Celebration: An Evening of Inspiration and Culture," (formerly known as Super Bowl Gospel Celebration) is inviting A-list celebrities, NFL players, and other notable figures to join the 24th Annual event.
​ Super Bowl Soulful Celebration returns during Super Bowl week with a live taping hosted by REACH Media Nationally-Syndicated Radio Host Willie Moore, Jr. on Wednesday, Feb. 8 at 7:30 p.m. at the Mesa Arts Center in Mesa, Arizona.
 After 24 years, this unique annual gathering has expanded its brand to incorporate more soul-enriching entertainment. Attendees are offered a rare glimpse into the spiritual lives of their favorite NFL players, their charitable giving, and what inspires them to greatness each day. This year, the Super Bowl Soulful Celebration will confer its highest honor, the "Faith In Action" Award, to Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback and Super Bowl LVII contender Jalen Hurts.
