As the crowning moment for the second edition of Miss Supranational Botswana approaches, the pageant management has revealed plans to host the Top Model and Talent Showcase to identify the Top 11.

The event is scheduled for the Game City rooftop on Saturday (March 2). In a statement, Miss Supranational management mentioned that the Top 30 contestants would be expected to showcase their talents and model fashion outfits from six top designers in Botswana.

"At the showcase, the top 30 contestants will showcase their performable talents and take the runway to model fashion outfits from six top designers in Botswana. The contestants have been accumulating points from day one as the pageant adjudication is continuous assessment and panel judging format, where their talent performances and modelling marks will be tallied up to make a Top 11," reads the statement.

Another contestant will, however, be chosen through public voting to make it to the Top 12.

The organisers also announced that the Grand Finale to crown a new queen is scheduled for April 6 at a venue to be announced. This year's Miss Supranational prizes will be worth P100,000, which will go to the new queen, including a management contract.

Meanwhile, the team announced the launch of the first-ever pageant podcast for Miss Supranational titled 'Giving Pageantry' hosted by former Miss Supranational contestant Mosa Balesamang. The podcast airs every Monday at 7pm on their YouTube and Facebook platforms.

"The exciting podcast features news on pageants around the world, breaking beauty plugs, our sponsors, the team who share the behind-the-scenes drama as well as a chance for the audience to get to know the contestants," the statement further reads.
