24 Hour Fitness Closing One Location In Costa Mesa

The national gym chain 24 Hour Fitness has filed for bankruptcy and is closing more than 100 locations, including in Costa Mesa.

24 Hour Fitness is permanently shuttering one location in Costa Mesa. The to-close gym is located at 1600 Adams Avenue in Costa Mesa.

“If it were not for COVID-19 and its devastating effects, we would not be filing for Chapter 11,” CEO Tony Ueber said in a statement. “We expect to have substantial financing with a path to restructuring our balance sheet and operations to ensure a resilient future.”

Despite the forced closures, 24 Hour Fitness said Monday in its Chapter 11 filings that it has secured $250 million in funding to support the reopening of its other locations by the end of June. Those locations had been closed for months because of coronavirus-related shutdowns.

24 Hour Fitness has three locations near Costa Mesa expected to remain open.

• 589 Anton Blvd, Costa Mesa
• 555 West 19th Street, Costa Mesa
• 1870 Harbor Blvd Suite B4, Costa Mesa

24 Hour Fitness now joins Gold’s Gym as a medium-sized fitness chain that has filed for bankruptcy due to coronavirus-related losses.
