Gym & Studio Refurbishment Dates Announced

Gym / Studio Refurbishment Dates Announced

We’ve got an early Christmas present for our members! 🎁

Moray Leisure Centre’s gym is getting a major refresh this December, with work taking place over nine days to bring exciting improvements to our fitness facilities.

To allow us to complete the refurbishment, the gym will close from:

Monday 7 December 2026

We’re planning to reopen on:

Wednesday 16 December 2026

We appreciate that this is a longer closure than the original five-day period we had anticipated, and we understand that this may cause some disruption to members’ usual routines.

The additional time will allow us to safely remove the existing equipment, bring in and assemble the new machines, and give the entire gym a thorough clean and refresh (with a couple of notable changes) so that everything is looking its best and ready for reopening. 

‼️ Please note: During this time, the men’s gym changing room will be closed to allow for the movement of equipment. For men wishing to change for classes, this can be done in the pool changing village. 

You can still stay active!

We know how important it is for our members to maintain their fitness routines, so there are still plenty of ways to keep active while our gym is closed.

• Group exercise classes: Our scheduled group exercise programme will continue as normal throughout the refurbishment. Studio equipment will be replaced during gaps in the classes timetable. 

• Why not try swimming: We’ve got dedicated lane swimming sessions available daily. Being active in the water is a great way to give your full body exercise, and strengthens a whole range of different muscle groups. 

• Other Moray facilities: Members can use other leisure facilities across Moray at no extra cost during the closure. These include Forres, Lossiemouth, Speyside, Buckie and more!

You can find the full map of participating facilities on our website under the Fit Life Membership page to help you find an alternative place to work out.

Follow the refurbishment journey!

We won’t leave you wondering what’s happening behind the scenes! Throughout the refurbishment, we’ll be sharing sneak peeks and updates to show you how everything is coming along.

We’ll also be sharing some exclusive pre-opening photos, giving you a first look at the refreshed gym before we welcome everyone back on Wednesday 16 December.

This investment is another important step in our ongoing commitment to improving our facilities and providing members and the wider community with even more opportunities to enjoy being active.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while we carry out these improvements. We can’t wait to welcome you back to your refreshed gym – just in time for Christmas! 🎄
