Are your family fighting fit and ready to take on the challenge of a lifetime?
Now entering its thirteenth year, Ireland's Fittest Family, the hit RTÉ series is once again on the hunt for the fittest, fastest, and strongest families across the country.
With an action-packed new season in the works, 2025 promises more excitement, more competition, and more unexpected twists and turns than ever before.
Recent winner, Paul Cummins from Kilkenny said it was one of the most incredible experiences for his family to bond over:
"What an unbelievable experience taking part in Ireland's Fittest Family has been. As individuals we have had success, representing our country in multiple sports, but to compete with zero expectations except to give it a good go.
"It took a lot of hard work, a lot of teamwork, Davy’s unique motivation and a little luck for us to be crowned Ireland's Fittest Family (or as I like to call it Ireland's Fittest 'Kids and their dad’). Thank you all for this special gift! We still find it hard to believe that that's exactly what happened."
How to apply
The show will begin filming this summer. So, whether you're a bunch of elite athletes, weekend warriors, or simply a tight-knit team with something to prove, this could be your year to conquer the course and scale the ramp to glory.
