Wellness belongs to all of Newark.
WellFest 2026 is a free, family-friendly festival — and CounterFin is the team making it happen.
WellFest is a city-wide celebration of wellness, music, and community at Branch Brook Park. For two days in August 2026, Newark residents and neighbors can move, connect, eat local, access resources, and enjoy live performance — all free to attend.
CounterFin, a Newark-born fintech, powers WellFest because financial dignity and community wellness are part of the same mission. CounterFin helps people recover unclaimed property, insurance claims, and other money they're owed — and invests that mission back into the city through events like this one.
