Bradford, we’ve done it again — but this time it’s bigger than Bradford.
6FIT Gyms has been officially shortlisted for Gym of the Year at the British Fitness Awards 2026 (BFA26) — the UK’s most prestigious fitness industry awards. Out of gyms across the entire country, we’re the only gym in Bradford, and the only gym in West Yorkshire, to make this year’s shortlist.
That means 6FIT is now recognised as one of a small handful of the best gyms in the whole of the United Kingdom. For an independent, family-run gym in Wibsey — going up against the biggest names in the industry — this is one of the proudest moments in our history.
Why This Shortlisting Means So Much
We didn’t get here by accident. This nomination sits on top of:
- Best Gym in Bradford 2025 & 2026 — voted by Telegraph & Argus readers
- Best Gym in the North — National Fitness Awards 2025
- Over 20,000 sq ft of premium training space, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
- Bradford’s largest independent gym, built by a local team who live and train alongside our members
Every one of those accolades was earned off the back of our members — their votes, their reviews, their word of mouth. This nomination is exactly the same. It’s not judged behind closed doors; it’s decided by public vote. Which means the people who can turn this shortlisting into a national title are the people reading this right now.
What’s At Stake
Being shortlisted already puts 6FIT among roughly 20 gyms nationally in contention for Gym of the Year. Winning would make us the best gym in the UK — a title no Bradford gym has ever held.
