Over 2,000 residents from the North West Brisk Walking Club (BWC) will gather at the stadium for a memorable mass walk alongside fellow BWC members. The event underscores the CDC’s commitment to promoting holistic wellness and strengthening community bonds, towards building a Caring and Healthy North West community.

Shanmugam, Coordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs, and Adviser to Nee Soon GRC GROs, alongside Host, Mr Alex Yam, Mayor of the North West District, this year’s festival offers something for residents of every age and interest. Mat Pilates and spin classes will draw in younger residents, while high-energy crowd favourites such as KPop Fitness and Zumba will keep the atmosphere buzzing throughout the weekend. Sports try-outs will cater for children, youth, and adults, and those with a competitive streak can push their limits on leaderboard challenges including access to popular gym equipment such as vertical jump, SkiErg, wall ball, rower, and more.

 4   On bringing families together for the festival, Mr Alex Yam, Mayor of North West District, shared: "It is heartwarming to see so many families coming out together to participate in activities like NW Fit-Fam 4. These are precious moments of bonding that bring parents and children closer together — and it is exactly the kind of shared experience we hope to create more of. In a world where screens compete for our attention, it is wonderful to see families putting down their phones and being present with one another."

 5  New to this year’s festival is the NW Fit-Fam 4, a parent-child fitness challenge inspired by the global trend of combining hybrid racing with functional fitness. The challenge puts a community spin on a format that has taken the fitness world by storm – reimagined for families and built around connection rather than competition. Parent-child pairs will work their way through alternating running segments and functional workout stations, namely farmers carry, SkiErg, wall ball, and rower. Mirroring the run-and workout structure that has captivated fitness enthusiast worldwide, yet unlike its more intense counterparts, NW Fit-Fam 4 requires no prior training and welcomes participants of all fitness levels, placing the emphasis firmly on shared experience rather than athletic performance. The challenge is expected to be one of the most exciting highlights of the weekend, capturing the festival's broader vision of using sports as a means of connection across generations.

 6   The festival will also host a full slate of competitions across both days, giving residents the chance to enjoy their favourite sports through friendly competition. Competitions include the Kids Soccer Competition, Basketball Competition, Badminton Competition, and the Ah Boy & Ah Girl Dash — offering options for participants of all ages to get in on the action. North West CDC works with a range of community partners to bring this diverse programming to life, reflecting the festival's commitment to keeping residents of all ages active and engaged.
