The club – the 11th in the group – is located in an ultra-modern Raphael Vinoly-designed building adjacent to the power station. It's the second opening this quarter for Third Space
High demand for the club has already led to the creation of a wait-list in the premium residential neighbourhood

Third Space is celebrating the launch of its 11th club in London at the historic Battersea Power Station development.
The new club is located at street level on Prospect Way in an ultra-modern, Raphael Vinoly-designed, mixed-use building adjacent to the original power station. It's one of the first things visitors see when they leave the Underground station.
The Battersea Power Station development has created a new, high-end neighbourhood for London, with apartments, penthouses, a hotel and multiple retail and F&B outlets.
This club has been on the cards for some time, with the premium operator first expressing an interest in the site nine years ago.
Colin Waggett, CEO of Third Space, says: “We first engaged with the Battersea Power Station estate team way back in 2015, and knew then we had to be part of this development.
“As is the case with every one of our clubs it's familiar yet unique, a blend of function and form. Such is the demand, we're already operating with a wait-list to ensure we manage the usage of the club to deliver a great experience. I know we're going to enjoy being part of the Battersea community for decades to come.”
The interior fit-out has been inspired by Raphael Vinoly's quirky, fluid, modern style and includes tactile, sustainable materials and curved metalwork. There's 28,000sq ft of training and recovery space, including a naturally-lit pool, spa, gym with a custom-designed rig and dedicated studios for the delivery of 160 classes each week.
This is one of three Third Space clubs to open this year, with the others being
Wood Wharf and Clapham Junction, set to open in Q3.
With investment from KSL Capital Partners, there are plans in place to double the portfolio in the next three years.
The Grade II listed
Battersea Power Station has been transformed into a new shopping and leisure destination with more than 140 shops, bars, restaurants, leisure and entertainment venues.
Colin Waggett will be part of the strong line-up of speakers at the upcoming
HCM Summit taking place in London on 24 October. Tickets are available now.
