NATIONAL FINALIST TRIP 2024

In May 2024, our 28 Miss Universe Australia National Finalists embarked on an unforgettable journey to Vietnam, courtesy of Vietjet Air, to experience a luxurious 7-day retreat at the renowned Hoiana Resort and Golf. This breathtaking location, set against the backdrop of Vietnam’s stunning coastline, provided the perfect setting for a week filled with unforgettable experiences.

The finalists were treated to a range of activities throughout the week, participating in cooking classes, where they had the opportunity to learn and recreate local culinary delicacies, and enjoyed a day on Hoiana's pristine golf course, exploring a new hobby in the picturesque surroundings. The finalists also took part in a tailored course offered by the prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), furthering their skills in confident and presenting.

A special highlight of the trip was our visit to the Hearing and Beyond organization, in collaboration with ToyBox Australia. This visit allowed the Finalists to engage with local children, learning sign language to spell their names.

Our National Finalists also participated in official swimwear photoshoots, expertly directed by renowned photographer Jarrad Seng. The exquisite Hoiana Resort, with its modern amenities and awe-inspiring scenery, served as the perfect backdrop for these memorable shots.

Throughout their stay, the finalists, along with our dedicated team, worked together to produce a collection of stunning photo and video content. These creative pieces will be shared across the social media platforms of both Miss Universe Australia and our National Finalists, showcasing the experiences to audiences around the globe.
