Beauty pageant «Miss Universe Vietnam 2026»

   After Miss World and a first-time hosting of Miss Vietnam, the Port City has been chosen for another national beauty contest - this time the final that sends Vietnam's representative to the Miss Universe stage.

   According to the official Miss Universe Vietnam fanpage, Hải Phòng will host the accompanying activities and the Miss Universe Vietnam 2026 final, drawing around 30 contestants. Contestants arrive in the city from 24 September, with a programme running to 2 October: a sash-handover and signing ceremony, charity work and tourism-promotion activities (26-27 September), the "Beach Beauty" round (28 September), rehearsals and closed-door interviews, closing with the final night on 2 October. The winner will represent Vietnam at Miss Universe 2026, the pageant's 75th edition, expected to be held in Puerto Rico.

   It suits followers of national beauty pageants, anyone who has already followed Miss World and Miss Vietnam in Hải Phòng this year, and travellers curious to see the Port City keep hosting national-scale beauty events. If you have been following the search for Vietnam's Miss Universe representative this year, 2 October is the season's final stop.

   The Hải Phòng Youth Union and the city's Việt Nam Youth Federation chapter are coordinating the pageant's charity, social and environmental activities; contestants will also experience local culture, scenery and everyday life, helping introduce the Port City to the rest of the country.

   The exact venue for the final night in Hải Phòng and ticket prices have not been announced yet - check the official Miss Universe Vietnam fanpage closer to the date for the venue and how to get tickets.
