The Miss Universe Organization is proud to announce that, beginning in 2025, Canal RCN serves as the new official licensee of Miss Universe Colombia, becoming the exclusive home of the nation’s most prestigious beauty pageant.
Through this new alliance, Canal RCN will take on the responsibility of producing and broadcasting the national competition, as well as managing the complete recruitment and selection process of the candidates who will represent each of Colombia’s regions. As part of this partnership, RCN will also exclusively broadcast the international Miss Universe competition within Colombia, reaffirming a shared commitment to celebrating the beauty, talent, and intelligence of Colombian women.
“At the Miss Universe Organization, we are confident that Canal RCN’s expertise and dedication will not only uphold the highest standards of our global competition but also elevate the experience for audiences and participants alike,” the Organization states. “RCN’s proven success in producing world-class live events, combined with its reach and influence across Colombian media, makes it the ideal partner to lead this new chapter of Miss Universe Colombia.”
Eugenia Vélez, Vice President of Programming and Marketing at Canal RCN, expressed the network’s excitement: “It is an honor for RCN to take on this new role. Our production division, Estudios RCN, along with our integrated media platforms, has extensive experience in delivering high-quality, live televised events. We are committed to showcasing the empowerment, beauty, and intelligence of Colombian women on both national and international stages.”
This partnership reflects the aligned mission of both organizations: to empower women and ensure that Colombia’s representative to Miss Universe is selected with transparency, excellence, and a focus on celebrating her achievements and potential.
Under the direction of Canal RCN, Miss Universe Colombia will continue to evolve while staying true to its purpose of elevating Colombian women and culture.
In the coming days, RCN—now the sole entity authorized to manage candidate selection—will announce details about the official call for participants through its media channels.
