Ireland's Fittest Family is back! Have you and your family got what it takes to win?


Ireland's Fittest Family is a competition reality show where families from all over the country compete against each other for the chance to win €15,000 and the title of 'Ireland's Fittest Family', all the while being mentored by our panel of respected coaches, Davy Fitzgerald, Derval O'Rourke, Anna Geary and Donncha O'Callaghan.


In 2016, the Cummins family from Thurles became the first Tipperary family to compete in Ireland's Fittest Family - they won the competition in an epic finale. Last year, the Meagher family from Killenaule attempted to defend the title for Tipp, but were unlucky in their quest, being eliminated in the second round. We want another Tipperary family this year to fight for their county pride!


Now in its sixth series, this year we’ll see the competition more competitive than ever before! So expect more heartbreak, joy, grunting, shouting, panting and general breathlessness!


We are searching the country to find the fittest, fastest, strongest families to enter Ireland's most extreme fitness competition. Does your family have what it takes to win the €15,000 cash prize and be crowned Ireland's Fittest Family 2018? If so, apply now!


Minimum age is 14 years old on July 2018. Each family will be comprised of four immediate members – for example grandparents/parents/children/step-children. Series will be shot from July - September 2018. Visit: rte.ie/irelandsfittestfamily or call 01 531 3865 for more information.
