Save BIG after the Expo here!

Every year, the fitness and hospitality industries wait for the moment where ideas, innovation, and inspiration collide. In 2025, that moment was AusFitness Expo and NoVacancy Expo; two powerhouse events that proved the future of fitness and hospitality is smarter, stronger, and more connected than ever.

From intelligent strength equipment launches to hands-on experiences with cutting-edge gym solutions, here’s a full recap of what went down and why you won’t want to miss the next one.

While AusFitness was all about sweat and strength, NoVacancy Expo leaned into style, design, and guest experience. Known as Australia’s #1 event for hotel and accommodation professionals, it’s where decision-makers go to reimagine what hospitality can be.

This year, Gym Direct brought the ultimate commercial gym solutions to hoteliers, resort managers, and developers looking to create unforgettable fitness spaces. From compact setups for boutique stays to high-performance gyms for large resorts, the expo was the perfect stage to showcase the value of fitness fitouts in hospitality.

If you stopped by our stand at AusFitness or NoVacancy, you know the Gym Direct booth was more than just a display; it was an experience.

Visitors discovered:

• Harison’s Omega Intelligent HR-G40 Strength Series

• Live strength and cardio demos

• Exclusive expo-only deals

• Free consultations for gym design and layout

• PLUS Free goodies, who doesn’t love that!

Our booth was packed with action, but the star of the show had to be Harison’s latest innovation.

This wasn’t just another strength machine; it was the future of intelligent training.

Sculpted with a sleek, futuristic design, the HR-G40 combines style and smarts. At its core? An advanced AC servo motor system that ensures pinpoint accuracy and long-term performance. But it doesn’t stop there.

What really wowed attendees were its smart training modes, tailored programs designed to challenge users at any fitness level. The machine’s 15.6” full-colour touchscreen turned data into a personal trainer’s best friend, making arm training more engaging, intuitive, and results-driven.

Put simply, the HR-G40 redefined what it means to train with intelligence.

There’s a big difference between reading about equipment specs online and actually using the machines yourself. At the expos, attendees had the chance to test-drive:

• Strength training rigs and racks

• Cardio machines and multifunction machines

• Dual-function with smart tech integrations

• Free weights and accessories

It wasn’t just about selling equipment; it was about showing how performance, durability, and design come together to create a winning gym environment.

One of the most popular features at our booth? The free floor plan consultations.

Gym Direct’s design team helped fitness businesses, hotels, and strata developers map out their dream spaces using 2D and 3D layouts. Whether you’re designing a boutique gym or a large commercial fitout, these consultations gave attendees a clear vision of what’s possible.

Because let’s face it—fitness spaces aren’t just about equipment; they’re about flow, functionality, and aesthetics.

Of course, no expo is complete without a killer deal.

Attendees scored an exclusive EXTRA 10% off our commercial range with the code GDAUSFIT10. From racks and benches to smart machines and free weights, this deal made it easier than ever to invest in quality equipment without blowing the budget.

Both AusFitness and NoVacancy proved one thing: the line between fitness and lifestyle is blurring. Guests expect more than a treadmill in the corner—they want thoughtful, performance-driven fitness experiences.

And with data-driven smart equipment and custom gym fitouts, businesses now have the tools to deliver on that expectation.

The curtain has closed on AusFitness Expo 2025 and NoVacancy 2025, but the impact of these events is just beginning. From Harison’s intelligent innovations to Gym Direct’s hands-on consultations and expo deals, these expos were proof that the future of fitness is about smarter spaces, better performance, and unforgettable experiences.
