The night will be filled with gorgeous and proud contestants, cultural talents and finger nail biting excitement.

Where Miss West Africa Gambia will differ to previous Miss West Africa events such as Miss West Africa UK and Miss West Africa Canada, is, as a country within West Africa all its contestants will have to originate from the particular country, in this case Gambia. Nevertheless, they will still be judged on their broad approach towards culture and knowledge of West Africa as a whole.

Miss West Africa is targeting a final event of 25 queen who are and will be doing West Africa proud. These include the 16 countries within the ECOWAS state, plus Sao Tome et Principe and Cameroon, as well as 7 countries outside of West Africa. Organisers have also stated that queens might be selected by vetting or voting in 5 countries if they do not discover event planners that can uphold a good event. “We are proud to take Miss West Africa to Gambia, its known for its beautiful shores and beaches, welcoming citizens, its proud president, and most of all, smiling faces.
