The Arnold Schwarzenegger Sports Festival is already a star studded event, if the namesake of the festival is not a hint enough.

Dr. Goldman founded the International Sports Hall of Fame (www.SportsHOF.org), recognizing the world’s greatest sports legends, with ceremonies held annually at the Arnold Sports Festival.

Dr. Goldman: "The International Sports Hall of Fame (www.SportsHOF.org), which I Founded and  co-host annually with my good friend Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, has become the premiere Sports Hall of Fame globally. Held  during the Arnold's Sports Festival, showcasing more than 18,000 competing athletes, in 45+ sports and over 175,000 attendees, this 2016 Class will blow people away yet again."
The Class of 2016 is comprised of:

Johnny Bench-Baseball Hall of Famer
Ronnie Coleman-8 Time Mr Olympia
Dolph Lundgren-Movie star & Euro Karate Champion

The International Sports Hall of Fame is a Non Profit foundation established to honor the world's greatest athlete legends in all sports. This is a global organization that believes recognition of these remarkable sports people should endure and be recognized long after their careers have ended. Just as important is what Hall of Fame candidates do later in life, in giving back to others and society, with charity work, and mentoring young people. The induction ceremonies will be held annually every March at the Arnold Schwarzenegger Sports Festival, which is the world's largest annual sports weekend, hosting 175,000 attendees and over 18,000 competing athletes.
