Saturday May 16, 2015 is Miss & Mister World Canada National Finals and Crowning Gala, a spectacular live show with music, dances and celebrity performances. The event is not just about selecting Winners to be Canada’s Ambassadors to the World. Miss World Canada joins with businesses, members of the national community, and special guests from all around the globe to celebrate the essence of “Beauty with a Purpose” to thank all contestants for the time they have spent over the last 6 months doing humanitarian work; picture them scattered across the country, marching, come rain or snow, determined to bring hope and much-needed funds to children in need. What a powerful example for youthful audiences about how to donate their time and energy for good causes!

Changing the lives of children worldwide, showcasing talents, empowering young women and men to achieve their dreams and goals, and creating strong Canadian ambassadors on a world stage through the New Development Program – this is what Miss World Canada stands for. The pageant prides itself on its philanthropic focus: here in Canada, Miss World Canada donates $60,000 to $75,000 every year to Variety – the Children’s Charity to help children with special needs, with support of its young contestants, volunteers and generous sponsors.

Miss World® remains the oldest, most prestigious and largest pageant in the world, and is still the most watched annually televised show, even beating out the Olympics in its ratings. Each year, the pageant continues to break records by attracting participants from over 147 countries with primary focus on humanitarianism and philanthropy. Miss World® has changed the lives of many children by raising so far over 1 billion dollars globally.

The Miss & Mister World® Canada National Finals will be a grand celebration of all these accomplishments. This is certainly an event to mark down on your calendars, as you do not want to miss this one! Come and support the work of the beautiful, strong and successful homegrown candidates.
