Planet Fitness has officially set up shop at Pearlridge Center in Aiea this week, rolling out a full gym on the mall's movie-theater side and giving central Oʻahu shoppers a convenient place to squeeze in a workout between errands or after a show. The new club adds one more reason for Pearlridge visitors to stick around into the evenings and weekends.
As reported by Pacific Business News on Tuesday, the Pearlridge location is the latest Hawaii outpost for the brand and sits in the Wai Makai wing near the theaters. The opening is part of a broader trend of national retailers and service operators filling in mall space across central Oʻahu.
Location, hours and memberships
According to the club's public page, Planet Fitness lists the Aiea (Pearlridge Center) gym at 98-1005 Moanalua Rd, Ste 2408A, with posted regular hours and membership options that include a $15 per month Classic plan and a $29.99 per month Black Card. The page also provides notes on which mall entrances to use during early and late hours.
Retail impact at Pearlridge
Shops on the theater side say the new gym is expected to boost weekday and evening foot traffic, which could benefit nearby food and service spots. Aloha Salads has already called out the Planet Fitness debut while recapping other recent tenant changes in the movie-theater wing.
Hiring and early feedback
Job postings from October show the franchise lining up fitness instructors and front-desk staff ahead of the opening, suggesting the team was in hiring mode weeks before launch. Online listings and early map reviews from services such as MapQuest, along with a local Craigslist hiring notice, indicate that shoppers and job seekers have been tracking the new location as it came together.
