While the MUPH coronation night will, as the name suggests, crown a new queen to be Miss Universe Philippines 2024 and represent the country at the 73rd Miss Universe competition in Mexico this September 28, there will also be other crowns and titles given out by the end of the night. Aside from a new Miss Universe Philippines, a new Miss Supranational Philippines, Miss Charm Philippines, Miss Cosmo Philippines, and Miss Eco International Philippines will all be crowned and represent the country in their respective international pageants in the coming year.

What’s a coronation night without a performance, right? And this year, expect a handful of stages from local and international stars. For starters, Lola Amour is set to rock the crowd as one of the night’s performers. Quite fittingly, the Filipina Winnah Marina Summers is also set to perform and maybe even snatch a crown of her own. Finally, Thai superstar Win Metawin is traveling back to the Philippines to serenade the crowd and the queens. Okay budget.
