This Fitness Atlantic was moved to East Haven Performing Arts Center at East Haven Connecticut and in a way was a good move. The Palace Theatre had something special about it being downtown New Haven yet East Haven had much more room backstage and was more modern and updated. This was a year the female divisions really started to match the male divisions. There was a total of 63 women in Bikini and Fitness and plus 8 female bodybuilders for 71 female contestants. Hugh Ross won the overall men’s divisions.

This year also drew some incredible talent for the natural bodybuilding with the return of Morris Mendez, the first show featuring Ulisses Jr and Hugh Ross. This show felt like an end of an era with the closing on the Palace Theatre and a new venue the following year.
