National Fitness Day 2024: A Day To Remember!
We’re thrilled to announce that National Fitness Day 2024 was a resounding success! This year, over 70 facilities across Ireland came together to inspire more people to get active, with a focus on accessibility and sustainability in fitness.
From energizing classes to inclusive activities, the day brought communities together to celebrate the benefits of physical activity. A special thank you to our ambassadors, Michael McKillop and Korina Duffy, who were instrumental in championing these important themes.
Our social media engagement soared with a 95.9% increase in page impressions and incredible participation from facilities and fitness lovers across the country. We saw fantastic events held at locations like DLR Leisure and DCU Sport, with many facilities reporting high engagement and positive feedback.
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the facilities, partners, and participants who made this day possible. Your commitment to getting more people, more active, more often has been truly inspiring.
We’re excited to start planning for National Fitness Day 2025 and can’t wait to make it even bigger and better!
