Quick Answer
Most LA Fitness clubs open at 5 am Monday through Friday and 8 am on Saturday and Sunday.
A growing subset of Signature and select suburban clubs open at 4 am or run 24/7 on weekdays. Check your specific club's page at lafitness.com for exact hours.
The Standard Weekly Schedule
Monday to Thursday: 5:00 am open, 10:00 pm close. Friday: 5:00 am open, 9:00 pm close. Saturday: 8:00 am open, 8:00 pm close. Sunday: 8:00 am open, 8:00 pm close.
This is the chain-wide baseline. Individual clubs adjust based on local demand. High-traffic urban clubs open earlier and close later; suburban clubs may run shorter weekend hours.
Signature Clubs Open Earlier
Flagship Signature clubs (Signature Miracle Mile in Chicago, Bryant Park in New York, Beverly Hills, Manhattan Beach) typically open at 4 am or run 24/5 (24 hours Monday through Friday morning).
These early hours cater to finance and hospitality workers with atypical schedules. Use the app to check your specific club.

Kids Klub and Amenity Hours
Kids Klub opens at 8:30 am on weekdays and closes at 8:30 pm. Weekends: 8:30 am to 12:30 pm only.
The pool typically opens with the club and closes 30 minutes before club close. Group classes run from about 5:30 am to 9:00 pm on weekdays.
Early-Bird Membership Benefits
The 5 am to 7 am window is one of the least crowded and best-parking times to visit any LA Fitness. Regulars in this slot tend to be respectful of equipment and quick with sets.
Some clubs offer discounted "Early Bird" pricing for members who commit to only using the club before 10 am. Ask the sales counselor if this is an option in your market.
Late-Night Closing Reality
Even if the club closes at 10 pm, staff start shutting down amenities at 9:30 pm. Pool closes early, Kids Klub closes early, hot tub is cleared early. Only cardio and weights remain open until the final minute.
Arrive at least 90 minutes before close if you want the full amenity access. Show up at 9:45 pm and you get 15 minutes of cardio and nothing else.
Pro Tips Before You Commit
- Tour on a weekday evening between 5pm and 7pm. That is the busiest window. If the equipment is still accessible then, it will be fine any other time.
- Ask for the promotional rate, do not accept the rack rate. LA Fitness runs quiet in-club promos almost every month; sales counselors have discretion to waive the initiation fee if you ask.
- Get every quote in writing. Verbal promises about future price locks are worth nothing once the sales rep leaves the club.
- Read the exact clause on annual fees. Most members are surprised in month 8 by a $59 annual fee they were never verbally told about.
