Save the date: Open Day at PARC, Saturday 1 October

Join us at PARC as we celebrate winning Victoria’s best large facility!

See why we won Facility of the Year! 

Everyone is welcome to head down to PARC and enjoy a range of different activities between 8am – 1pm, as well as have a chance to get to know our wonderful crew. We have loads planned, check out all the details below.  

 Come and try the Gym 

Visit our Gym, winner of Health Club of the Year and meet our Health Club team and experience a workout with our state-of-the-art equipment, as well as enjoy:

  • FREE Small Group Personal Training sessions
  • FREE InBody scans and functional movement tests
  • Hydration station, giveaways, DJ…and more!

Come and try Small Group Training 

 We are offering FREE Small Group Training sessions for Full Access members. These 30minute sessions will show you how much fun it is to work out in a group, and demonstrate the benefits of working out with a trainer. Full Access members can register closer to the date via the My PARC app or our website here.   

Come and try a Group Exercise class  

We have organised a morning full of different classes for you to come down and try.  

  • 8.15am Powerzone with Joel 
  • 10.30am Active Movers with Nic H 
  • 11.00am Aqua Zumba with Tomoko 
  • 12.00pm Les Mills Mega Class featuring BODYCOMBAT, BODYATTACK, BODYPUMP and BODYBALANCE, with Kristy and Nicki 
  • 12.45pm Reformer Fit Pilates with Aranya 

These classes are running in addition to our usual Saturday timetable, so if you’ve got your weekend routine already, you won’t be impacted.  Book your spot here. 

Come and try our family friendly pools 

There are lots of fun activities for families to enjoy as well with our school holiday program still running. Complete our Under the Sea Scavenger Hunt for a chance to win a $250 voucher to Enchanted Adventure Gardens, free face painting between 10am – 1pm, and fun take home goodies for kids.   

Come and try our Cafe 

Have you met our awesome Café crew? Not only do they serve delicious coffees, they serve up smiles all day. It’s International Coffee Day, so make sure you come to the Café for some special promo deals and taste tests!  

Come and try PARC 

This open day is free for members and non-members. If you want to have a guided tour around the Facility, we will be running these every 15 minutes between 9.00am and 12.00pm. One of our friendly, experienced Sales Consultants will show you the facilities we have on offer at PARC. The tour covers aquatic areas, Health Club, group exercise studios and Creche – whichever areas you are interested in!   

The details: Our open day is Saturday 1 October between 8am – 1pm, with FREE entry to the Centre. Non-member visitors details will be captured on entry, and if you are using the Gym for the first time, you will need to complete a quick paper-bases health assessment to ensure we can provide you with the support you need.  

Thank you 

Our Facility of the Year win would not have been possible without YOU, our amazing Peninsula Leisure and PARC community, and we want you to say THANK YOU with a fun, free open day – we really hope you can make it.  

We can’t wait to see you there!

Bright bathers = safer swimmers 🌈🩳

Our PARC Swim team demonstrate that when it comes to swimwear for little ones, the right colour can matter!

🟡 Bright colours like neon orange, pink, yellow or lime green can be easier to spot.
🔵 While some dark or pale colours and may disappear in busy pools or in open water.

As we enter the height of Summer, and more of us in and around water, help your children stand out for all the right reasons!

Go bright, go bold, and stay safer around water!
