Fitness First will close its Bondi Junction gym after failing to secure a tenancy in Westfield. The gym issued an email to members this week advising it would close later this year.
“Unfortunately, after 20 years of dedicated service to the community, it’s with deep sadness that we write to inform you of the impending closure of our Fitness First Platinum Gym, at Westfield Bondi Junction later this year,” the email said.
“We were hopeful of securing a new location within the centre to build a new premium fitness facility, however, we were disappointed to learn late last week that we were unsuccessful in our tender bid.”

A timeline for the closure has not been established, with Fitness First still in negotiations with Westfield.
Members will be contacted once the dates are confirmed. Until then, the gym remains operational.
There’s another Fitness First just around the corner in Spring Street, however its not a ‘platinum’ gym.
“Please be assured that we are providing all the necessary support to our team during this difficult period,” Fitness First said.
There are currently 37 gyms in Sydney, two in Canberra and 12 in Melbourne.
Yahoo Finance has contacted the gym for comment.
