Experience
More Than a Competition.
The Forge Festival™ was created with a purpose that extends far beyond race day.
While the NXF Classic™ showcases athletic performance and competitive excellence, the Forge Festival™ exists to inspire growth, build community, and empower individuals to take ownership of their health, wellness, and future.
We believe that every person possesses far more potential than they realize.
Our mission is to provide the education, experiences, resources, and support needed to help people strengthen their Wellness Foundation, build momentum, and take meaningful steps toward becoming the strongest version of themselves.
Mission
The Forge Festival™ is an invitation to challenge yourself, connect with others, discover new possibilities, and embrace the belief that growth is always possible.
Your potential already exists.
Our mission is to help you unlock it.
Community
The Forge Festival™ exists to bring people together.
The health, fitness, and wellness industries are often fragmented into separate communities. The Forge Festival™ creates a shared environment where these communities can connect, learn from one another, exchange ideas, build relationships, and celebrate a common pursuit.
Becoming better than they were yesterday.
Whether you're chasing a podium finish or taking your very first step into fitness, there is a place for you at the Forge Festival™.
Build Capability. Build Community. Build Momentum.
