Miss Universe delegates on Friday, November 1 donned vibrant Day of the Dead make-up for the Gala de las Catrinas.

This unique event showcased the contestants with detailed designs on their faces that paid homage to the iconic Mexican holiday, Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).

The event celebrated on November 1 and 2, is a time-honoured tradition in Mexico where families gather at the graves of loved ones, who are believed to return each year.

On the evening of October 31st, relatives light candles that cast a gentle glow over marigolds, offerings, and traditional foods arranged on graves and home altars.

Miss Universe 2024, the 73rd edition of the prestigious pageant, will be held on November 16, 2024, at the Arena CDMX in Mexico City, Mexico.

This marks the first time since 2007 that Mexico is hosting the event. The reigning Miss Universe, Sheynnis Palacios from Nicaragua, will crown her successor at the end of the evening.

This year's competition features contestants from over 130 countries, including first-timers from Belarus, Eritrea, Guinea, Iran, Macau, Maldives, Moldova, North Macedonia, Somalia, the United Arab Emirates, and Uzbekistan.
