Strong New York, NYC’s biggest wellness festival, returns September 27

Strong New York, NYC’s largest fitness and wellness festival, is back for its biggest year yet on September 27 at The Glasshouse. The event expects 5,000+ attendees for celebrity-led workouts, competitions, and more.

The Details: A day of movement, recovery, and community

Strong New York brings together some of the biggest names in fitness and wellness. Laird Hamilton and Gabby Reece will lead their HIGHX circuit training workout and Performance Breathing sessions, plus appear on the main stage alongside Phil Daru, Gunnar Peterson, Karena Dawn, Chris Hinshaw, Devon Levesque, Dr. Jonathan Kuo, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, and Bobby Maximus.

Strong New York is back September 27.

The festival features two main competitions. The Strongest in New York pits top athletes against each other in strength, speed, and endurance challenges for cash prizes. For everyday participants, the Test of Strength and Longevity offers accessible one-minute challenges: pull-ups, deadlifts, rowing, and biking.

“When I started Strong New York, I said strength isn’t just about picking heavy weights up off the ground – it’s about being able to pick yourself and others up,” said Kenny Santucci, Founder of Strong New York. “From innovative products to game-changing conversations, we’re building a space where people can connect, learn, and leave stronger than they came in.”
