The Grand Finale will take place at the Lyric Theatre at Gold Reef City on September 12.

The pageant empowers women with the knowledge to bring about change to communities in need. The winner will represent South Africa at the international pageant in London in November this year. All 53 Commonwealth member states are invited to send their representatives to compete for the prestigious titles.

Through the Commonwealth Pageants, a platform is created for women of all ages to become charity and culture ambassadors within South Africa and the broader international community. The title holders become involved in charitable causes and uphold the aims and objectives of the Commonwealth. This includes racial harmony, poverty eradication and cultural cohesion. This year the pageant will support Pink Drive.
