The 13th annual Health Wellness & Lifestyle Expo presented by Stamford Health, is set to take place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., September 7, 2024, at the Harbor Point Boardwalk, in Stamford, Connecticut. The event, expected to draw more than 4,000 attendees, promises a day of health, wellness and fitness activities for all ages.

The expo will feature 10 activation zones, free group fitness classes and more than 120 sponsors and exhibitors. Attendees can look forward to returning favorites such as Stamford Health’s HaHa’s and practitioners, ShopRite/Cingari Family Markets offering free flu shots and dietician advice, Camp Bow Wow in the Pet Wellness Zone, the Vital Stretch professionals, and trainers from Life Time Fitness and Chelsea Piers Athletic Club.

Tamara Ketler, president of TMK Event Marketing, the creator and organizer of the expo, expressed her anticipation for the event. “It’s always an exciting time for us each year when we reach back out to participants, some of whom have been with the HWL Expo since its inception 13 years ago, and begin planning the next event,” she says. “The camaraderie among the participants, as well as the attendees, is infectious and inspiring. We also can’t wait to introduce everyone to some new faces this year, adding to the event’s diverse offerings.”

Group fitness trends show that working out with friends increases success and retention rates, highlighting the benefits of finding a supportive community. The expo aims to provide this community experience, encouraging everyone to live their best lives.
