2027 Hall of Fame
Induction Ceremony
The Health & Fitness Hall of Fame honors the visionaries whose ideas, leadership, and influence have elevated the health and fitness industry and changed the way people around the world engage in physical activity. At the third annual HFA Hall of Fame induction ceremony, we’ll celebrate a new class of icons whose contributions have helped shape where our industry is today—and whose legacies continue to inspire where it can go next.
A New Night for the HFA Hall of Fame
For the first time, the HFA Hall of Fame ceremony will take place on the opening night of The HFA Show, immediately after the Kick-Off Party. The new timing gives even more of our industry the opportunity to come together, honor those who helped build our past, and leave inspired about our future.
Proceeds from HFA Hall of Fame ticket sales benefit the HFA Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that supports industry research and provides grants to HFA members to help advance the health and fitness industry and build healthier communities.

2027 inductees will be announced soon!
