Chicago Wellness Week
September 21–27, 2026
Chicago Wellness Week is a premier citywide wellness festival that transforms Chicago into a destination for health, movement, culture, and community. Taking place September 21–27, 2026, the week brings together healthcare organizations, fitness and wellness brands, hospitality partners, local businesses, nonprofits, entrepreneurs, and community leaders to celebrate every dimension of well-being while showcasing the best of Chicago.
