The Miss Universe pageant is one of the most highly anticipated events in the world of beauty pageants. Every year, women from all over the globe gather to compete for the coveted title of Miss Universe, showcasing their grace, poise, and intellect. 

With a rich history spanning over six decades, the Miss Universe pageant has not only evolved into a global phenomenon but has also become a platform for empowering women and promoting social causes. From the iconic swimsuit round to the final question and answer segment, the pageant has continued to captivate audiences worldwide. 

Being Miss Universe Croatia has been a matter of prestige, with the winners representing Croatia on the world stage. 

In December this year, another Croatian beauty will have the chance to represent Croatia in El Salvador when they compete for the crown worth 5 and a half million euros.

Arijana Podgajski, the current Miss Universe Croatia, will hand over the crown to her successor at the beginning of May and casting for the most beautiful Croatian is about to begin.  

Organisers are inviting those interested to register for the pageant via the official website and fill out the application HERE.
