Best gyms in Lisburn (2026)

How we put this list together

Lisburn has a healthy mix of independent gyms, budget chains and a large leisure centre, so choosing the right one comes down to what you actually want from your training. To keep this guide honest, we compared real Google ratings and review counts alongside each gym's local presence and what it offers. Here are six solid options, in order.

1. A&C Performance Gym

A&C Performance Gym tops our list as a genuinely local, independent option in Lisburn. As the name suggests, the focus here is on performance, which tends to suit people who want their training to have a clear purpose rather than just clocking up time on a treadmill. That coaching-minded, results-focused approach is what sets it apart from the bigger, more anonymous facilities in town.

Being independent and locally run also matters. Members are known by name rather than by fob number, and that warm, straightforward atmosphere makes it easier to stay consistent, whether you are new to training or chasing a specific goal.

If you are weighing up your options, the best move is simply to get in touch or call in. Speaking to the team directly is the quickest way to find out whether their approach fits what you are after.

2. Club 24 Fitness Lisburn

Based at Unit 12, Riverside Commercial Centre on Young Street (BT27 5EA), Club 24 Fitness holds an impressive 4.8 Google rating from 98 reviews. That is a strong score for a local gym and suggests members are consistently happy with the experience. Well worth a look if you are in the Young Street area.

3. PureGym Lisburn Laganbank

PureGym on Laganbank Road (BT27 4TQ) is the big-name chain option in Lisburn, with a 4.3 rating from a substantial 457 Google reviews. That volume of feedback reflects a large membership base, and the familiar PureGym model tends to suit people who want a straightforward, self-directed place to train in a central location.

4. The Fitness Forge

The Fitness Forge, at 17 Altona Road (BT27 5QB), earns a solid 4.5 rating from 52 Google reviews. As a smaller independent gym, it offers an alternative to the larger facilities in town, and its rating suggests members who train there rate the experience highly.

5. Lagan Valley LeisurePlex

Lagan Valley LeisurePlex at 18 Lisburn Leisure Park (BT28 1LP) is a leisure centre rather than a dedicated gym, and it carries a 4.4 rating from a very large 1,859 Google reviews. It is a popular choice for households who want a broader leisure offering under one roof alongside their gym sessions.

6. Elite Health & Fitness Lisburn Ltd

Elite Health & Fitness, at 1c Harmony Mews on Skyline Drive (BT27 4HP), has the highest rating on this list at 4.9 from 51 Google reviews. That near-perfect score from its members speaks well of the experience there, and it is a strong independent option on that side of Lisburn.

How to choose the right gym for you

Every gym on this list is well rated, so the deciding factors are personal: location, atmosphere, whether you want coaching or prefer to train alone, and what your budget allows. Visit two or three before committing. Ten minutes on the gym floor will tell you more than any review, and most gyms are happy to show you around.
