This year's event will focus on six core pillars of transformation: balance, move, breathe, care, uplift and play.

WWE Champion and actor John Cena, actress Cameron Diaz, Food Network chef Amanda Freitag, Cincinnati Bengals legend Chad Johnson, TV host of "The Talk" Amanda Kloots, professional street basketball player Grayson Boucher, Super Bowl champions Eli and Peyton Manning, Peloton instructor Alex Toussaint and professional tennis player Venus Williams will all make festival appearances.

The weekend will also feature two free concerts. The Barenaked Ladies will perform on Friday and then Flo Rida will take the stage on Saturday.

Local celebrities including Reds Hall of Fame Broadcaster Marty Brennaman, Chef Christian Gill, NFL Hall of Famer Anthony Muñoz, mixologist Molly Wellmann and Drew and Lea Lachey will also make appearances throughout the weekend.

The festival runs both days from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. It's the largest free health and wellness festival in America. Event organizers said the goal is to celebrate physical, mental and emotional health for the whole family.
