The Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots aren't the only big shots in town! This year Glendale, Arizona and its surrounding cities will play host to sponsored hospitality events featuring celebrity guest appearances in preparation for the big game.

The Super Bowl is a chance for companies and organizations to capitalize on a colossal opportunity for brand exposure through on-site hospitality events as opposed to spending big money on TV advertisements. Likewise, celebrity agents are eager to book their clients for guest appearances with added perks during this special week.

Celebrity hosts can energize an event with A-list appeal and leave event goers with a memorable experience. University of Phoenix Stadium, the site of this year's Super Bowl, holds 63,400 people although Celebrity Speakers Bureau estimates that tens of thousands more football fans have descended on Arizona to enjoy the on-site activations from companies and organizations.

Celebrity Speakers Bureau has created a detailed list of celebrity hosts who have been hired by companies and organizations to host charity and hospitality events in Glendale, Scottsdale, Phoenix and surrounding areas beginning on Wednesday:
