Fiji will host the 37th Miss Pacific Islands Pageant from 13–20 February 2026 in Nadi.

The announcement, made by Fiji’s Minister for Local Government and Housing, Maciu Nalumisa, confirms Fiji will return as host after a seven-year break.

More than ten Pacific nations are expected to participate, offering a regional platform that celebrates culture, confidence and talent.

The lead-up will feature the Miss Fiji Pageant 2025 beginning 8 December, with the winner advancing to represent Fiji at the regional pageant.

Organisers say hosting the event enables Fiji to reaffirm its hospitality and showcase Pacific heritage while empowering young women through representation and leadership.

The 2025 title, one with judging controversy, was won by Litara Ieremia‑Allan of Samoa.

Earlier this month, Tonga hosted the Pacific Tourism Organisation meeting 2025 up in Vava’u.
