The inaugural season of the Miss Teen Pearl of Africa beauty pageant will captivate audiences with a blend of musical performances and cultural showcases, emphasizing the empowerment of young African women.

The grand finale, scheduled for August 31 at the Silver Springs Hotel, promises to be a highlight for both participants and spectators.

The pageant kicked off a few weeks ago with auditions at the National Theater Gardens, where numerous hopefuls showcased their talents in hopes of advancing to the grand finale. Those who were successful will compete for the title of Miss Teen Pearl of Africa 2024/25, with the winner earning the prestigious title and other awards.

The pageant aims to empower young women by celebrating their talents, intelligence, heritage, and leadership qualities beyond mere physical beauty. The event also emphasises education and cultural pride, inspiring participants to make a positive impact in their communities.

The pageant marks a new chapter in the local beauty pageant scene, following the discontinuation of the previous Miss Teen pageant. The Miss Teen Pearl of Africa seeks to fill this void by providing a more inclusive platform for young women across Africa.
