A luxury fitness chain known for big health clubs with expansive offerings — and high prices — is close to opening another Las Vegas outpost.

Minnesota-based Life Time plans to open its new facility in the southwest valley, across from Ikea, in December. This marks its third athletic club in Southern Nevada.

During a tour of the under-construction complex in late September, Life Time management told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that more than 10,000 people had joined the waitlist and that monthly membership rates would start at around $350.

They also said there would be a $200 initiation fee but noted they expected this to climb.

Life Time’s three-story, 128,000-square-foot facility at the southeast corner of Sunset Road and Durango Drive occupies a 15-acre plot where a never-built high-rise complex left a giant hole in the ground for years.

The pool area at the under-construction Life Time health club, located at 8555 W. Sunset Road in southwest Las Vegas, is shown on Monday, Sept. 28, 2026.…
