The Miss Universe New Zealand pageant will be held again in Wellington, on Sunday, May 1.
The success of last year’s event drew the pageant back to the capital city.
Contestants from all around New Zealand will arrive in Wellington on April 23 for a week of preparation.
Funds from the charity auction, held as part of the final night, will be donated to the Christchurch earthquake fund.
The Canterbury region will be represented with Miss Christchurch. Although she lost her sponsorship after the tragic earthquake of February 22, Miss Universe New Zealand has decided to sponsor her.
The Museum Hotel will, once again, host the contestants in their luxury accommodation. The final event will take place at the Amora Hotel Wellington (formerly the Duxton).
Tickets for the event are available from pageant director Val Lott, email lotts

The winner will travel to São Paulo, Brazil to compete at Miss Universe, at that pageant’s final on September 12.
