Following the official announcement from the Royal Thai Government regarding the passing of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, the Queen Mother of Thailand, the country has entered a period of national mourning. In light of this, various public events and ceremonies are being evaluated for appropriate adjustments to reflect the solemnity of the time.
Miss Grand International Company Limited, which holds the rights to organize the 74th Miss Universe competition, has confirmed that the event will proceed as originally scheduled from November 2 to 21, 2025, in Thailand. The organization emphasized that preparations have already been finalized, and international delegates and participants have begun arriving in the country.
Organizers have also acknowledged the importance of maintaining a balance between honoring tradition and fulfilling the commitments made to the international community, given the significant logistical and financial investments already in place.
As the Miss Universe competition approaches, the organizers are working closely with authorities to ensure all activities are conducted in a respectful and culturally appropriate manner. The event remains a major international platform and will aim to reflect both the spirit of global unity and the solemn respect for the Thai royal family and its people during this period of remembrance.
