Which channel in the Philippines?
ABS-CBN renewed its deal as official Philippine broadcaster in 2025 on a multi-year contract covering the grand finale. In 2025, it showed the coronation on Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, Metro Channel and iWant. As of November 3, we haven't seen the 2026 channels announced, so treat those as a guide, not a promise. We'll update this page as soon as they're confirmed.
Philippine time for all three shows
The National Costume Show is at 7am on Sunday, November 22. The Preliminary Competition is at 7am on Monday, November 23. The final is at 8am on Wednesday, November 25. That's a work and school morning for many people, so sort out your plans early.
Watch out for fake streams
Some videos labeled as live coverage only show commentary, reactions or old clips. Use the links in the table above, and don't enter card details on a page you found through a social post.
Bea's bid for a fifth crown
Bea Millan-Windorski of La Union won Miss Universe Philippines on May 2, 2026. The Philippines has four crowns, won by Gloria Diaz in 1969, Margie Moran in 1973, Pia Wurtzbach in 2015 and Catriona Gray in 2018. A fifth would take it level with Puerto Rico. Fans can support Bea in the fan vote, which is separate from the Maya voting used at the national pageant.
