From the Organizer

We are excited to share The Men's Health Event has a new home at the Wayne State Fieldhouse!!
Information for the 2026 will be updated as it is finalized.

Join the Michigan Men's Health Foundation for our 16th annual Men’s Health Event on September 26, 2026, at the Wayne State Fieldhouse from 9a-3p! Since our first Men’s Health Event in 2011, we have provided over 150,000 FREE life-saving screenings to over 12,000 attendees. We have helped countless men gain control over their health and identified critical illnesses including hypertensive crises, diabetes, and prostate cancer, to name a few.

The Men's Health Event will provide men with health screenings to assess their current health, give them a better understanding of how to stay healthy, and share information about advances in healthcare. All health screenings are FREE for men, no insurance necessary. Men age 18 and older will be eligible to receive health screenings.
