As reported by Mario Dumaual for ABS-CBN News, Miss World Philippines 2021 will finally have its Finals on September 19, 2021 at the SMX Convention Center in Olongapo City.
MANILA — After several postponements, it’s finally a go for Miss World Philippines (MWP) 2021.
Pageant organizer and producer Arnold Vegafria told ABS-CBN News Thursday that the pageant’s coronation night is set on September 19 at the SMX Olongapo City Convention Center.
“Even as we help in promoting the Olongapo’s tourism, we shall also strictly comply with all their health protocols,” said Vegafria, also citing a limited audience attendance in the finals night.
Last August 2, pageant organizers announced the indefinite postponement of its coronation night, amid the implementation of enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) in Metro Manila from August 6 to 20.
The pageant was earlier set on August 8 at Okada Manila, after being moved from July 11 and 25.
“We believe that the health and safety of our candidates, as well as everyone else involved in the pageant, take precedence over everything else during these crucial times,” the MWP statement at5the time said.
Forty-five candidates are vying for the opportunity to represent the Philippines in international pageants such as Miss World, Reina Hispanoamericana, Miss Eco Philippines, Miss Eco Teen Philippines, Miss Philippines Tourism, and Miss Environment International Philippines.
Dindi Pajares previously won the right to represent the Philippines at the Miss Supranational pageant in Poland last month on the strength of votes cast by her fellow MWP candidates. She placed in the top 10 of Miss Supranational.
Vegafria said the MWP coronation will still be streamed online by KTX.ph with hosts Wynwyn Marquez, RJ Ledesma and Alyssa Muhlach, among others.
Me too
Uncle, 19! LINGGO before the MUP Finale. Nalagasan ka ng isa’ng PN’s episode. Siyempre, you will attend… Kaya pala apurahan ang pag-feature ng MUP candidates.
Olongapo City, your first ‘outside-Manila’ pageant coverage since SARS-CoV2 pandemic. Sabado pa lang, siguro, larga na kayo… Para Sunday, freshness ang peg. 🙂
You will provide blow-by-blow updates on your FB? When will you give your Fearless Picks, po?
Flor, safety first. I need to see how everything will play out – if indeed it will play out on the 19th.
I hope this pushes through.
@ serge Good Friday not in Lent but in Fall. 🙂
Mukha’ng OK na ‘to. When the Boss (ALV) says “strictly comply with all their (SMX Olongapo City CC) health protocols”, then it means may basbas na ng mga ‘kinauukulan’g maykapangyarihan’.
Wala na’ng Multinational. Wala ri’ng Supra (which suggests a return to their usual early Dec norm, so kahit next year na lang ulit mag-crown ng SupraFilipinas).
I repeat now my ‘demands’, char.
MWP – Either Krishnan or Vera, depending on discussions between Bosses ALV & Rodgil. Balance will be…
… ReinaHispanoFilipinas – A few international pageants will Finalize in Panama City this December. Is that OK as venue option to La Paz?
MEco-Filipinas – AGAIN, WHOEVER Dr. Rezk likes! As far as I’m concerned, this could be Perez if taken from the Top Model 10 and… Pangindian if not.
MEcoTeen-Filipinas – Tempra is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Gov. Emano MUST be invited as VIP guest to the Finale! 😦
Pariwisata Filipinas – The dentist Martinez.
Lingkungan Filipinas – This most probably will go to Arceo.
Princessa Primera – Megan Deen Campbell
Princessa Segunda – MANZANO!
1) This may be the first time KF will take the top crown.
2) A ‘Miss Amity’ sub-title must be given, based on the candidates’ poll.
3) From the earlier Press Conference, major sponsor Artopian Internationale was considering getting an ambassador or two. Look again at the candidates they selected; I recall De Mesa, Robles, Lewis, Perez, Pajares, Vera, and Krishnan.
4) LLEGADO MUST TRY FOR MUP 2022~3!!!
5) TALL ones like Austria, Dilla, and Babao MUST CROSS OVER TO BBP 2023~5!!!
