It is scheduled to happen later this year.
Through his personal Instagram account, Thai businessman Nawat Itsaragrisil that his team has been authorized by the Miss Universe Organization (MUO) to organize the upcoming 74th edition.
According to Nawat, his company, Miss Grand International Public Company Limited — which also owns the Miss Grand International pageant, will be handling the 2025 competition, which takes place in Bangkok, Thailand in November.
This update came nearly three weeks after the MGI group announced that it successfully acquired the national franchise for Miss Universe Thailand last February.
The grand coronation day for the pageant this year is scheduled to happen at the Impact Muang Thong Thani Arena in Bangkok, which also served as the venue of the 2018 edition — when Catriona Gray won the coveted Miss Universe crown, thereby becoming the fourth Filipina to do so.
The upcoming 74th edition will mark the Thailand’s fourth time hosting the pageant, with the other two being the 1992 and 2005 competitions.
Miss Universe held its most-recent pageant in Mexico City last November 2024, where it crowned Victoria Kjaer Theilvig from Denmark as its first queen from the said European country.
Meanwhile, Filipina bet Chelsea Manalo was later named as the first Miss Universe Asia after the competition.
