With Palacios’ upcoming visit to the Philippines, the Nicaraguan beauty will become the third reigning Miss Universe titleholder to see the country in a span of three years. India’s Harnaaz Sandhu, who won in the 70th edition in 2021, came to Manila in 2022, while her successor R’Bonney Gabriel visited in 2023.

Palacios’ two predecessors made their respective appearances at the Miss Universe Philippines pageant’s coronation ceremonies in 2022 and 2023, but it has not been announced whether she will also make an appearance at the national competition.

The 2024 Miss Universe Philippines pageant will hold its coronation show at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City on May 22, about two weeks from Palacios’ scheduled last day in the country. Gabriel will host the show.
