The IFBB Pro League release the 2013 schedule and it’s jam packed with shows. The 2014 Olympia moves ahead by one week and a few shows have also changed their dates. A number of Bikini shows have been added and fans outside of the USA will have an opportunity to see more events. The year officially kicks off the first weekend of February with a new pro bikini show in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Arnold Classic will serve as the big event for most divisions. The Arnold Rio is back and should be a great event in its second year.
The most notable change is the Dallas Europa which has been held in August for years. Due to a scheduling conflict with the venue the event moves to May. This could be a great opportunity for fans to see competitors make a run at a few shows as it falls between the Pittsburgh Pro and the New York Pro. There are 5 female bodybuilding events on the schedule despite the division being dropped from the Arnold Classic. Leading the way in contest is the bikini division with 30 events. Fitness has nine shows on the schedule which is great to see.
This is only a preliminary schedule and the most recent schedule is always available at ifbbpro.com.
Number of 2014 IFBB Shows by Division:
• Men’s Bodybuilding – 19
• 212 Men’s bodybuilding – 11
• Men’s Physique – 20
• Women’s Bodybuilding – 5
