Trafford Palazzo, one of the North West’s leading shopping and leisure destinations, has secured a major new letting with Everlast Gyms+, which has taken a 28,000 sq ft unit to deliver a next-generation fitness club to compliment Trafford City’s thriving sport, leisure, and wellness offering.

Set to open in early 2026, Everlast Gyms+ Trafford Palazzo will be one of the most comprehensive fitness destinations in the Trafford region, featuring expansive functional and group training zones and top of the range Nautilus gym equipment covering cardio, pin and plate loaded machines, as well as free weights. Everlast Gyms+ represents the highest spec within the brand’s portfolio and offers a luxury tier of membership: Champion+. This exclusive level unlocks a range of elevated experiences, including:

  • Reformer Pilates Studio: Featuring 18 Allegro 2 beds, this boutique-style studio brings low-impact, high-performance training into the heart of the gym.
  • HYROX Performance Center: The space cements Everlast Gyms as the home of HYROX in Greater Manchester. Fully equipped with Centr-supplied race day kit, specialist performanceturf, and tailored programming, it’s built for serious functional fitness.
  • Recovery Zone: A cornerstone of Everlast Gyms’ performance philosophy. Champion+ members gain access to an exclusive recovery suite featuring Brass Monkey ice baths, herbal sauna, and a modern, elevated space for post-training reset.

Complementing the fitness experience, Everlast Gyms+ at Trafford Palazzo will also feature a Myprotein Kitchen, serving coffees, smoothies and healthy snacks for pre and post workout.

“Trafford Palazzo is an exciting step forward for Everlast Gyms. With this opening, we’re delivering one of our most comprehensive gym concepts yet, setting a new benchmark for accessible, high-quality fitness and wellbeing in the Greater Manchester region.” said Dan Summerson, Managing Director at Everlast Gyms.

Mark Whittaker, Managing Director at Peel Retail & Leisure, said: “Everlast Gyms+ is a significant signing for Trafford Palazzo and strengthens our position to become the go-to destination for unique leading retail and leisure experiences in the North-West. Their next-generation fitness concept not only elevates our sport and wellness offer but also complements leading tenants such as Sports Direct. Across TraffordCity, momentum is building, and Everlast Gyms+ joins Trafford Palazzo at a pivotal moment, just ahead of the transformative opening of Therme Manchester next door.”

Trafford Palazzo continues to attract a diverse mix of leading leisure and experiential operators and the addition of Everlast Gyms+ supports the destination’s wider vision to grow its active lifestyle provision.
