The 62nd annual Miss Universe® Canada Pageant will be held at the St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts (Bluma Appel Theatre) in Toronto. 60 delegates from across Canada will be in Toronto from May 18th to May 26th and will compete for the title of Miss Universe® Canada 2013 awarded on Saturday, May 25th, 2013. The reigning Miss Universe® Canada, Sahar Biniaz will crown her successor before a live audience. First Runner-up and Canadian representative at Miss Universe 2012, Adwoa Yamoah will assist the crowning. With an established reputation, the Metro St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts Theatre has been chosen to be the host venue for the 2013 Miss Universe® Canada pageant.
The pageant consists of two separate audience attended events:
Pageant Presentation Show (Thursday, May 23rd, 2013)
All 60 delegates from across Canada compete before a live audience and a judging panel in the traditional categories (Swimwear and Evening Gown) for the chance to be selected as one of the Judges’ 15 semi-finalists. In addition, 5 segment winners will be joining the group of semi-finalists for a chance to win the title.
Miss Universe® Canada 2013 Pageant Finale Show (Saturday, May 25th, 2013)
The top 20 semi-finalists from Thursday’s Pageant Presentation Show will compete for the title of Miss Universe® Canada 2013 in front of a judging panel as well as our live audience in the traditional categories (Swimwear and Evening Gown), plus the addition of a live interview/question and answer segment. However, all 60 delegates will be involved in production numbers throughout the show.
Miss Universe® Canada delegates are selected each year by competing in local and regional casting calls and pageants held in select areas across the country. ‘Beauties of Canada’ has the exclusive rights to send a Canadian representative to the Miss Universe® Pageant.
You can vote for your favourite delegate up to four times (4) a day per IP address. The delegate with the highest number of votes between April 15th and May 23rd (noon – EST) will win the People’s Choice Award and will automatically be one of the top 20 Semi-finalists. The announcement will be made the evening of May 23rd at the end of the Preliminary competition.
