Equinox will reopen its Pacific Palisades club at 17383 Sunset Boulevard on December 15, 2026. The club first opened in December 2024 but closed weeks later after the Palisades Fire in January 2025.

Why it matters

The reopening restores a full-service fitness option to Pacific Palisades residents and Los Angeles-area members after the fire forced the club to close. The space previously housed Bay Club, which closed in 2023.

Equinox operates 118 clubs worldwide, and the Pacific Palisades location was open only weeks before the January 2025 fire forced its closure. The extraction does not specify membership pricing or capacity for the reopened club.

Timeline

  1. December 20, 2024: Equinox Pacific Palisades opens at 17383 Sunset Boulevard.

  2. January 2025: The Palisades Fire forces the club to close.

  3. December 15, 2026: The club reopens its doors.

Openings & Closings

The reopening follows the January 2025 Palisades Fire, which forced Equinox Pacific Palisades to close only weeks after its December 2024 debut. It marks the club's return to a Pacific Palisades corridor that had already seen Bay Club close in 2023.

Pacific Palisades residents who lost access to the club after the fire will have a fitness option on Sunset Boulevard again. Members can expect personal training, Pilates, contrast therapy and locker-room facilities when the doors reopen.

The takeaway

Local fitness openings often depend on rebuilding after disruption, so residents planning to return should watch for the December 15, 2026 date. Checking the official Equinox site before then can confirm hours, membership details and booking options.

What happens next

Equinox Pacific Palisades is scheduled to reopen its doors on December 15, 2026.
