National Fitness Day 2024 to take place on 18 September

The National Fitness Day 2024 will take place on Wednesday 18 September, hot on the heels of the Olympics and Paralympics in Paris.

Now in its 13th year, the nation’s most active day of the year – organised by industry body ukactive – will feature new branding for the 2024 campaign. The day will be supported by sports rewards platform, Endurance Zone and men’s mental health charity, Movember, for the second year in a row.

Gyms, swimming pools, leisure centres, sports clubs, studios, schools, workplaces, and online providers across the UK will be opening their doors to encourage as many people as possible to try something new and reap the physical, social and mental benefits of physical activity.

Last year (2023), 10.2 million people in the UK were directly motivated to participate.
