The new fitness centre at the $832 million Sydney Football Stadium is so luxurious some members are paying more than $20,000 to work out there.
The Sporting Club of Sydney at the newly-built Allianz Stadium is a state-of-the-art fitness and recreation facility that offers a wide range of state-of-the-art amenities to its members – and it could be the best of its type in Australia.
When they arrive at the club, members are greeted by a premium entrance with a reception and lounge area.
The club also features two squash courts, weights and cardio training gyms, group training rooms for yoga and cycle classes, a café with indoor and outdoor dining, fitness assessment rooms, and a virtual golf studio.
For those looking to take a dip, the Sporting Club of Sydney offers both an indoor heated pool and an outdoor 50m heated pool with bookable pool cabanas. The club also provides childminding services and a day spa with four treatment rooms.
After working up a sweat, members can relax in the hot spa, cold plunge pool, space-age sauna that uses infrared light to raise the temperature, a traditional sauna, or the steam room.

With so much to offer, it’s no wonder the Sporting Club of Sydney is one of the city’s most popular fitness destinations.
However, all this luxury comes at a price.
For those looking to become a member of The Sporting Club of Sydney along with access to ‘selected’ Swans, Roosters, Waratahs and Sydney FC regular season matches, the joining fee alone for a members and guest pass will cost at least $5000 under the Lifestyle package.
If you want unfettered access to the sporting club facilities and the sporting events at the new venue, Premier membership will set you back a cool $22,000 – and all spots have already sold out.
