One Playground Merrylands
Opening in early 2025, One Playground is set to revolutionise the Western Sydney fitness scene with a brand new health and wellness destination: The Mirage.
Experience the elegance of a high-end hotel fused with the cutting-edge amenities of a wellness centre, boutique studios, and best-in-class equipment sourced from around the globe. This isn’t just a gym – it’s a complete wellness experience that elevates your fitness journey to a whole new level.
The Concept – “The Mirage”
Each One Playground facility is unique, and the concept for ‘The Mirage’ is to inspire a new and elevated vision for your fitness and wellness journey. Just like a mirage appears as a captivating image in the distance that you cannot wait to reach, this One Playground experience has been designed to inspire members to set ambitious goals and reach a level of health, fitness and wellness they never thought was possible.
A Design Beyond the Ordinary
The design transports you away, to another time or place, taking inspiration from the luxury of Dubai or Morocco in this internationally inspired design.
The exceptional architectural features of the Mason and Main development are highlighted, with the soaring 5.5-metre ceilings and elegant arched windows brought to life with a design that is out of this world.
You are met with a sophisticated lobby with terracotta render wall finishes, elevated with natural stone, micro cement floors and custom lighting. As you peer through the arched breezeblock gateway, you can see a custom pink marble drinking fountain that sits inside the wellness lounge. This amazing design continues from room to room, with surprising and beautiful elements found throughout.
We wanted to create something special and memorable. A truly immersive experience that allows you to disconnect from your time at work or home, and step into a space that is dedicated to achieving a better version of yourself.
Endless Experiences
The Mirage is more than just a gym, it’s a complete fitness and wellness destination that provides every experience to help you achieve your goals.
Spanning two floors and covering 3000 sqm, The Mirage is One Playground’s largest facility to date, and truly offers members all their needs in one place, with one membership. The oversized facility has 6 group training studio concepts, 2 semi-private studios, private recovery suites, saunas and a 1,500 square metre weights and cardio zone.
Read below to get a better understanding of each of our spaces.
And Endless Equipment
The gym floor is a fitness haven, equipped with over 100 cutting-edge machines, including premium Technogym cardio equipment and bespoke Gym80 gear. With 11 squat racks, 24 benches, 4 leg press machines, 4 precision-engineered lat pull-downs, and 3 dedicated seated rows, designed to meet a wide range of workout needs. Additionally, the gym offers a set of Watson dumbbells, engraved with the One Playground logo, providing a premium touch to your training experience.
We are delighted to unveil the Comfort Zone, a dedicated weights area thoughtfully designed for those who appreciate a more tranquil and relaxed environment. This intimate space offers all the essential equipment found on the main gym floor, but in a private environment, perfectly suited for those who prefer lighter weights and a calm, low-energy atmosphere.
Studio Concepts
Alongside The Flagship, another brand new One Playground location opening in Haymarket, we are revolutionising group training with the introduction of six new studio concepts, offering over 200 classes a week.
The Studio Concepts cover each exercise modality:
- Reformer: A sophisticated and stylish space, catering to both dedicated fitness enthusiasts and those who value staying up-to-date with current workout trends.

- Legacy: Experience the ultimate fight-focused fitness classes, blending HIIT, punch techniques, and combat styles like Boxing, Muay Thai, and Kickboxing. Build strength, refine your skills, and get fight-ready in every session.
Semi-Private Training
A first for One Playground, The Mirage will see the introduction of our first Semi-Private group training offering.
This new concept bridges the gap between one-on-one personal training and large group fitness classes, providing the attention, programming and assessment of personalised service in a small group environment that still encourages community.
Our Semi-Private Reformer studio provides an intimate and supportive environment, featuring just eight Reformer beds, allowing our instructors to focus on perfecting your alignment and technique. This exclusive setting is ideal for pre and post-natal clients, as well as those recovering from injuries, who require tailored guidance and extra care.
The second Semi-Private studio is dedicated to strength training, with eight individual stations, each equipped with a bench, squat rack, cable machine, and free weights, ensuring a comprehensive and personalised workout experience.
Recovery and Amenities
Your One Playground membership will include access to a crèche, available to members for a small fee. Amenities such as private recovery suites featuring personal ice baths, infrared saunas and traditional saunas for contrast therapy are available, offering the chance to relax or rejuvenate post workout.
Expert Coaching
Our coaching system ensures our members get the most out of their training. Whether you’re looking to lose weight, build muscle, improve your performance or learn new skills, we have coaches for all goals and lifestyles.
Our coaches focus on sustainable change beyond the gym floor working with a system built to encourage collaboration and communication. They understand life can be hectic and are here to help find what works for you.
Each year, our coaches undergo more than 200 hours of development and education through the One Playground Academy
