Accra, Ghana — After weeks of cultural showcases, grace, and fierce competition, the curtain rises this Sunday, 19 October 2025, for the grand finale of Ghana’s Most Beautiful (GMB) 2025 at the National Theatre, Accra. The stage is set, the contestants are poised, and the nation awaits the moment a new queen will be crowned.
A Cultural Journey That Captivated the Nation
This year’s GMB journey has been more than a beauty pageant. From its launch earlier in July, the show has sought to celebrate Ghana’s rich heritage by challenging contestants to demonstrate knowledge of traditions, languages, and histories from the country’s sixteen regions.
Along the way, each contestant has been judged not only on poise and stage presence, but also on their ability to articulate cultural narratives, present meaningful community advocacy, and fashion regional costumes that reflect authentic identities.
One of the highlights of the preliminary rounds was the “regional swap night,” during which contestants had to represent regions other than their own—an ingenious twist intensifying the competition. For example, Afedziwa from the Central Region earned the Star Performance Award after skillfully embodying Volta Region culture.
Finalists: Who Made the Top 5?
As the event draws near, the organizers have confirmed the Top 5 finalists who will battle for the crown on Sunday. Among these names mentioned in the media are Sika (Ashanti Region) and Etornam (Volta Region), both tipped by fans and pundits as strong contenders.
Sika, a recent graduate, reportedly impressed the judges with an emotionally charged presentation about the 1826 Akatamanso War, weaving in themes of resistance, sovereignty, and societal change. Etornam, on the other hand, has been a standout in earlier rounds, accumulating multiple nominations and awards—making her one of the most decorated contestants in the 2025 show.
Though the full list of finalists has not been exhaustively disclosed in all sources, it is confirmed that the grand finale will bring these top delegates to face off in several final rounds: cultural questions, presentation, and a closing walk to seal the decision.
What to Expect: Time, Tickets & Broadcast
The finale is scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM local time at the National Theatre, Ghana’s premiere venue for performing arts. Attendees can secure their tickets via USSD by dialing *928*12*3#, with a rate of GHS 100 per ticket.
For those unable to attend in person, the event will be aired on TV3, the show’s long-standing broadcast partner, and streaming options are expected to be available for viewers across Ghana and abroad.
What Rests on the Crown
Beyond the prestige of holding the title, the winner of GMB typically gains a platform for cultural advocacy, media engagements, sponsorship deals, and a chance to become a national cultural ambassador. In past years, GMB winners have embarked on community development projects, public speaking circuits, and cross-cultural outreach.
Already, speculation is rife on social media about who will follow in the footsteps of the 2024 queen, Nihad Titiaka Oases Ibrahim of Savannah Region, who made headlines as the pageant’s first-ever hijab-wearing winner.
Stakes High, Spirits Higher
Pageant insiders say this year’s competition is among the most competitive in recent memory. With contestants sharpening every skill and fans rallying behind their favorites, the finale is expected to be a dramatic night of suspense, applause, and spectacle.
As Sunday approaches, Ghana watches, waits, and wonders: Who will emerge as Ghana’s Most Beautiful 2025 and carry the mantle of culture, elegance, and influence for the coming year?
Stay tuned—come 8 PM, Ghana’s next cultural queen will be revealed.
