Chicago’s Faces Of Fitness Festival Taps Sam Feldt For Immersive Fitness Performance

Faces of Fitness

Electronic beats have fueled workouts for decades, but at Chicago’s Faces of Fitness festival powered by BLOOM, instead of your playlist supplying the pump-up jams, it’ll be fan-favorite DJ Sam Feldt.

Returning to River North this July 26-27, the two-day health and wellness festival has unveiled a headline performance from the top DJ and producer, set to soundtrack a live fitness class on day two. 

Having already brought his feel-good, big-room beats to festivals like CoachellaUltra MiamiTomorrowland, and more, Feldt’s appearance at Faces of Fitness will mark yet another milestone: his live show will be integrated with a full fitness experience for the first time in his career.

From après-ski parties to run club afters, famous DJs are known to perform live at a host of post-workout events across the fitness world. However, unique to Faces of Fitness, Feldt himself will help build the class in cohesion with his set, making for an “innovative and most importantly authentic” experience, according to festival co-founder David Grass.

“Music is such an intrinsic component of the fitness class experience that spurs continuous joy, connection, and inspiration amongst the class participants,” Grass said in a press release. “So having an icon like Sam Feldt as part of the fitness experience is something that is quite special to our fan base and something that has yet to be done at this scale in the U.S.”

Feldt’s performance is just one highlight of Faces of Fitness’ 2025 headliner lineup, which also features appearances from Jennifer Aniston’s celebrity trainer, Dani Coleman, former NFL star Israel Idonije, fitness icon Aubre Winters, and an as-yet-unannounced Global Peloton instructor.

Throughout the weekend, attendees can also enjoy over 20 festival-style studio classes from Barry’s, Lululemon, Peloton, Rumble, Pvolve, OrangeTheory, SolidCore and more. Meanwhile, Faces of Fitness’ Wellness Village will feature over 80 brand activations showcasing health innovations from Propel, Bloom, Slate, Gatorade, and Pure Green, among others.

The festival has also partnered with local nonprofit Urban Initiatives to bring fitness, health, and wellness experiences to underserved Chicago youth during the school year. A portion of every Faces of Fitness ticket sold will directly support Urban Initiatives.

Tickets for Faces of Fitness Chicago 2025 will go on sale on Saturday, May 3, at 9AM CT. For more information or to make your purchase, visit facesoffitnesschicago.com.
