“The Miss Asian Las Vegas Pageant is the perfect opportunity to celebrate our rich and diverse Asian cultures in our Las Vegas community,” said Joey Galon, artistic director for Miss Asian Las Vegas. “It is the culmination that brings our Far East heritage and our Western heritages together, showcasing a night of colorful pageantry like no other. It is also the opportunity to empower young women and to select a representative that will carry on the pageantry as an official spokesmodel for the organization for the community at large.”

In conjunction with the pageant, some of the contestants will also participate in a swimwear competition, open to the public, at Azure Luxury Pool at The Palazzo on Friday, September 26.

Among the categories in which the contestants will compete include national costume, swimsuit, eveningwear, talent, platform, and Q&A.
