Planet Fitness "Smashes" The Year-That-Just-Won't-End With Limited Edition Piñatas Perfect For Any At-Home New Year's Eve "Bash"

HAMPTON, N.H., Dec. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- 2020? Yeah, we're over it, too. That's why Planet Fitness, Inc., one of the largest and fastest-growing global franchisors and operators of fitness centers with more members than any other fitness brand and the primary sponsor of Time's Square's iconic New Year's Eve celebration, today unveiled the next best thing to officially "break"ing up with this year and moving ahead to the next – the ultimate 2020 piñata party pack.

Available now for only $20.21 on PFStore.com, each of the 100 limited edition party packs includes Planet Fitness swag, special sweet treats, celebratory confetti and two exclusive New Year's Eve hats. Plus, 21 primed-to-be-pulverized piñatas include a free one-year PF Black Card® membership to the Judgement Free Zone® tucked away inside.

"This year has been challenging for everyone, and releasing frustrations and stress in a fun and safe way with our piñata party packs will help everyone move forward – and actively put 2020 behind us with a 'bang,'" said Jeremy Tucker, chief marketing officer at Planet Fitness. "In taking a few swings to release the mental and physical stress we've all been carrying for months, we can ring in a Judgement Free 2021 with hope and inspiration, ready to get moving and stay moving in the new year and beyond."

In addition to being presenting sponsor of Times Square's iconic New Year's Eve celebration for six consecutive years, Planet Fitness is for the first time this year a proud partner of Good Riddance Day, which will be celebrated on Monday, Dec. 28 with a larger than life piñata in the heart of Times Square (or digitally via TSQ.org and on social media using #GoodRiddanceDay). Planet Fitness wants to help everyone say "good riddance" to 2020 by getting out their frustrations – figuratively speaking – in a big way, encouraging everyone to put the past behind them and look forward to a promising year ahead.

Mental and physical health are more important now than ever, and Planet Fitness offers extremely low prices and a variety of benefits, including a Judgement Free environment, brand name cardio and strength equipment, fully equipped locker rooms, flat screen televisions and much more. Planet Fitness' top priority remains keeping its members and employees safe. New and returning members alike will see first-hand the enhanced safety and sanitization protocols at its well-ventilated and spacious clubs, such as touchless check-in, physical distancing measures, robust cleaning and sanitization, and enhanced digital features such as a crowd meter on the Planet Fitness mobile app – allowing members to check club capacity in real-time before even leaving the house. The free Planet Fitness app, available to members and non-members alike, puts more than 500 exercises right in your pocket with routines for all levels and interests.
