Strength in the City Festival LA runs on Saturday, October 17, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Academy LA, 6021 Hollywood Blvd. Doors open at 8:30 a.m., and a free community 5K run or 2-mile walk sets off at 8 a.m., an hour before the first class.

What a ticket covers

The organizer lists 20+ mini-classes across the day, among them yoga, Pilates, HIIT, dance, meditation and workouts with equipment, and a ticket covers all of them. There are also recovery experiences, local vendors, food on site and a BINGO game with 50+ prizes. No class-by-class timetable or teacher list has been published yet.

Tickets start at $0 on the organizer’s SweatPals listing; that is the lowest tier, and the listing does not describe the paid ones. All sales are final, with no refunds.

Before you go

  • Bring: your own yoga mat and a water bottle.
  • Weather: the festival goes ahead rain or shine.
  • The 5K: the listing gives no start point and does not say whether it needs its own RSVP, so check with the organizer if you plan to do both.

Atlanta Life Insurance Company is the presenting sponsor, and the organizer says proceeds support the Strength in the City Foundation. For the wider picture of what the festival is and who is behind it, see our news story on the Hollywood wellness festival.
