Talented and handsome Tefo Tshwaane and the beautiful Myheart Ditlamelo were crowned Mr and Miss Kgatleng Festival respectively after outshining fellow contestants at the pageantry held in Gaborone on Saturday night.

Even though the competition was tough because all contestants came fully prepared, only one gentleman and lady won the crown. The duo's lucky stars were by their side as they managed to impress the judges. Tshwaane's runner ups are Neville Kgoropu who scooped the first runner up title followed by Kago Mokane with the second runner up while Abang Mosiiwa got the third runner up title. From the women's side, Ditlamelo's runner ups are Laone Mosemele with the first runner up position followed by Palesa Mawila who scooped the second runner up position while Sieria Letshoo won herself the third runner up title. The pageantry started off very late and the sound was poor.

However, the contestants managed to redeem the situation with their energetic performances during the parades. The pageantry kick-started with them wearing some shorts and white tops for the women while the gentlemen wore some trousers with crewspans. They mesmerised the audience with their eye catching dance performances. Their vintage parade was top notch and everyone came fully prepared. The skirts, colourful shirts, dresses, check pants, block heels hairstyles, hats and gorgeous handbags together with some colourful scarfs sealed it on the ladies side. The gentlemen did not want to be left behind as they also made sure they do dress up for the theme. The poses, the suitcases and one carrying the big plastic bag usually used to carry big luggage and the outfits from the gentlemen also lit up the event. The contestants later showcased different Setswana cultures through their attires and brief performances.
