The #NextMediaPark, on 7th November, hosted the 2022 Miss Planet International participants and delegates from various countries.
The visit was characterized by a #NextMediaTours experience for the beauty queens, a deeper understanding of all Next Media brands and Ugandan media. Uganda is the official host for Miss Planet International, an event from November 6th- 20th, 2022. This is the first time a mega international beauty pageant is hosted in the Pearl of Africa and will be watched by millions worldwide.
Speaking at the gathering, Next Media Deputy Group CEO Joseph Kigozi thanked the pageant organisers for choosing to partner with Next Media and assured them of eyeballs during the contest. “Pageantry calls for action against the things we believe in as a society, and as Next Media, ours is to make sure we expand your vision to the world.
