    The Kroger Wellness Festival, a free two-day health and wellness event, will take over downtown Cincinnati this weekend.

    The Kroger Wellness Festival will take place on Friday, September 27th and Saturday, September 28th on Fifth Street in downtown Cincinnati. The festival begins on Main Street and ends on Columbia Parkway, as noted on the Kroger website.

    The Kroger Wellness Festival is America's largest health and wellness event with over 200 sponsors and a variety of fitness activities, panel discussions, cooking demonstrations, exhibits, classes and live music on six stages. For this reason, several streets in Cincinnati will be closed for the celebration.

    Here's what you need to know about road closures this weekend.
