Miss Zimbabwe Pageant To Be Streamed On ZTV 1 August, Winner To Walk Away With $1 000 In Prize Money

The Miss Zimbabwe pageant due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus which makes it impossible for large crowds to gather in one place will go virtual this year as it will be streamed live on the national broadcaster ZBCTV on the first day of August 2020, the Chronicle reports.

The development was communicated by Director of the pageant, Mashmac Machena who said;

The pageant started in 2018 but we had our first show in 2019 as Miss Harare Grand. After the successful hosting, we started receiving requests from models from other provinces to make it all inclusive and that’s when we decided to host one grand show that would include all provinces.

Our pageant seeks to identify models who have talent but don’t have resources as our aim is to produce world-class models that can go on and showcase their talents on international stages.

Judges, models and journalists will be the only people in attendance. The lady who will be crowned Miss Zimbabwe among the 30 contestants will represent the country at the Miss Pan African Queen in November and will walk away with US$1 000 while first princess and second princesses will receive US$600 and US$400 respectively.
