Miss Universe returns to Slovenia
06. 05. 2025
MISS UNIVERSE® is the most prestigious beauty pageant in the world, with a tradition that has been going on for 74 years. At Boscarol d.o.o., together with the Odiseja complex, we decided to become a part of this story, as we believe that Slovenia also deserves its place in it. This increases its visibility and at the same time offers ambitious individuals an interesting opportunity and unforgettable experiences.
Our mission is to select individuals who will represent Slovenia on the world stage at one of the most famous beauty pageants in the world – Miss Universe. The competition focuses on finding individuals who combine the physical beauty, intelligence, grace, charisma and social engagement of Slovenian women.
In the coming months, we are planning intensive activities for the selection of MISS UNIVERSE® Slovenia 2025. From the registered candidates, the jury will select 15 finalists in the pre-selection, who will compete at the final event on 3 September 2025 at the Odiseja complex in Ljubljana. It is a top lifestyle event that appeals to the audience with style, prestige and a global touch, while emphasizing health, physical fitness and grooming in accordance with modern trends.
The winner will travel to the final assembly for the 74th Miss Universe of the World, which will be held in Thailand on November 21, 2025.
