Beauty, culture and community education came together in Dublin during the first Miss & Mrs Cross Continent pageant.
The event welcomed 24 contestants representing seven nations and attracted around Dublin 450 guests to the Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin.
The organisers worked with The Truth About Drugs Ireland to include an educational element alongside the pageant and cultural performances.
Before taking part in the stage programme, contestants and visitors toured a Truth About Drugs exhibition and learned about the effects of commonly abused substances. Several contestants completed online drug-education courses before the event, with some finishing all fourteen modules.
In his address, Mayor Francis Timmons noted that education and positive leadership can help create healthier and more united communities.
The pageant was accompanied by a diverse cultural programme featuring dancers from several community organisations.
At the end of the competition, Niveditha Vudayagiri was named Miss Cross Continent 2026. Fortunate Lindokuhle Masina and Yuki Yuliatin completed the top three as first and second runners-up.
The gathering connected beauty and cultural pride with leadership, informed choices and community involvement. The complete story can be read in this report about the multicultural pageant combining cultural celebration with drug education.
