The “most beautiful day in the universe” is happening.
On Friday, November 20, the 74th Miss Universe coronation event will happen at the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand, where it was last held back in 2018 when Catriona Gray won the coveted crown, the fourth in the pageant’s history for the Philippines.
Set to compete in the global pageant are over 90 contestants from all over the world, including the Philippines’ very own Ahtisa Manalo who will vie for the fifth crown of the country in the prestigious pageant.
The said event will be broadcast live to Filipino viewers by ABS-CBN, which recently renewed its multi-year partnership with the Miss Universe Organization (MUO).
The network will air the event live via the pay television channels Kapamilya Channel and Metro Channel and the A2Z channel on free-to-air television, with and live streaming available via the iWant platform beginning at 9:00 am.
This year will mark the sixth time that ABS-CBN has carried the Miss Universe pageant through its platforms since its broadcast shutdown and eventual transformation as a content provider in 2020.
