Dear Member,
We're excited to share that upgrades are coming to Virgin Active Richards Bay, designed to enhance the way you train, work and connect in club.
From 7 November, we'll be investing in improved training spaces, new equipment, and a refreshed Kauai and co-working environment. While some temporary disruption is expected, these improvements will create a more modern, functional, and enjoyable member experience.
What's Coming?
