The Telecom Miss Fiji Pageant will be held at Thurston Garden and along Ratu Cakobau Road in Suva this year.

Hibiscus Events Group chairman, Hirdesh Prasad made the announcement during the pageant launch at Albert Park last night.

Prasad says the event which was supposed to take place in Lautoka got cancelled and Suva was the next option.

“Well it was scheduled to be held in Lautoka but due to some reasons, it won’t be able to so we started looking for a venue. But there was concert at the Museum earlier this year and when we saw the concept, we kind of knew that something can be done over here. So I got stakeholders involved and got SCC involved along with some engineers to see how we can logistically fit over there. It has proved to be fitting and spacious. The rides will be at the parking lot of the Thurston garden by the museum, we will have a main stage next to the museum and along the Cakobau road will be stalls that’s next to the footpaths and the Albert Park pavilion will be used for food stalls as well as the foyer for flea markets.”

The Miss Fiji pageant will begin on the 21st to the 28th of this month.
