In 2025, Wellfit brought a dynamic presence to Kite Beach in a month-long takeover, featuring the XPark Dubai Fitness Hub at the center. During the whole month of November, participants got to enjoy over 120 free group classes that include various activities, from yoga all the way to high-intensity interval training (HIIT).

There’s some incentive for the Dubai Fitness Challenge, too, not just to stay active for 30 days. Those participants who attend the most classes at Kite Beach win a one-month free membership to Wellfit. This friendly competition adds just enough incentive to keep community members and visitors engaged in the event and to push their physical limits.

3. DP World 30×30 Fitness Village
