Following the failure to host the Miss World 2024 finals, the Miss Botswana management team has revealed its ambitious mission to host the finals in 2026, which would cost about P130 million to organise.

The Director of Miss Botswana, Benjamin Raletsatsi intimated during the Miss Botswana 2024 top 30 contestants media reveal that they intend to host Miss World 2026 after their right to host the 2024 pageant was revoked.

Raletsatsi stated that they had initially been given the green light by Miss World to host the pageant next year but the permission was revoked after they failed to respond in time. “Miss World had permitted us to host Miss World 2024 and in March, we came back with the letter to Botswana. In this letter, we were given six months to respond to it if we will host or not but the permission expired in August as we had not responded by then,” he said. Raletsatsi revealed that they realised they were not ready to host the 2024 pageant.
