Macerich is backfilling the first level of the former Bloomingdale's at Santa Monica Place with high-end fitness concept Club Studio.

High-End Fitness Concept Coming to Macerich’s Santa Monica Place

High-end fitness concept Club Studio is coming to Macerich’s Santa Monica Place. The 48,000-square-foot Club Studio replaces the first level of the former Bloomingdale’s location at the property.

Club Studio will be located on level one below ARTE MUSEUM – the 50,000-square-foot, immersive art exhibit set to open in 2024 in the former ArcLight Cinemas location on level three – advancing Macerich’s planned repurposing of the full former department store and theater space. Macerich expects to announce a complementary use for the second level within the coming months.

“Club Studio adds a terrific new use to our slate of top-drawing retail, dining and entertainment experiences at Santa Monica Place,” said Doug Healey, senior EVP, leasing, Macerich. “We’ve seen proof of how symbiotic, high-end fitness uses add traffic and energy from early mornings to late evenings at our top Regional Town Centers. Club Studio is an outstanding fitness brand with a very loyal and growing clientele, and we are very pleased to welcome them to Santa Monica Place.”
