Correction (4 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 4 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.

Want a gym, a pool or a studio class near Brunswick, and want the price before you walk in? This page lists seven places in and around the suburb: four in Brunswick and three in Brunswick East.

There is no single best gym here, so the criteria are plain: the price each place prints, the hours it publishes and the classes it lists. Where a place does not publish something, we say we could not find it.

Every place was checked against OpenStreetMap and its own website or council page, and every price is copied as printed, with its item named beside it.
