Before then, however, the 2024 contest’s record 127 participants must negotiate Thursday’s preliminary competition, from which 30 delegates will advance to Saturday’s final show.

Who chooses the Miss Universe grand final qualifiers?
During the prelims in the Mexican capital, the Miss Universe selection committee will choose 29 of the 30 semi-finalists who are to advance to the weekend’s main event, including four continental queens (for Latin America and the Caribbean; Europe; Africa; and Asia and Oceania). The remaining qualifier for the grand final will be decided by a fan vote.
The pageant’s organisers have revealed that there will be no evening gown competition in Thursday’s prelims; delegates will only parade in swimsuits and national costumes. In the grand final, the top 30 will then be reduced to 12, who will take to the stage in evening dress. Five finalists will then compete in a question-and-answer round, with the winner of this Q&A declared the new Miss Universe.
