After so many times that this event was postponed, finally we saw some light and got the confirmation that the very first Miss Universe Philippines 2020 pageant will be held on October.

Creative Director Jonas Antonio Gaffud said “pageant enthusiasts can expect a more dynamic role of young women leaders around the Philippines. We also promise the final show in October will be one of a kind.”

The MJP presented 52 delegates in February, 51 of them had remained and the organization said there have been no withdrawals from any of the current contenders.

One of them will be crowned 2020 Miss Universe Philippines and will represent the country in the 2020 Miss Universe pageant, which has yet to announce its date and venue.

This is the first stand-alone pageant for the Philippines’ official delegate to the Miss Universe pageant. The Binibining Pilipinas pageant has been sending the country’s candidate to this international competition since 1964.
