Culture and Entertainment minister Olivia Grange has encouraged all 13 Parish Queens of the 2021 Miss Jamaica Festival Queen Competition to put their best foot forward when stepping on the World Stage at the competition’s virtual Grand Coronation on Emancipation Day, August 1.
Minister Grange, who is the official patron of the competition addressed the queens last week.
The Queens will continue their training this week and will also see additional courtesy calls with Prime Minister Andrew Holness and the Leader of the Opposition, Mark Golding, as well as a special Karaoke event to meet and mingle with the competition’s sponsors.
The Miss Jamaica Festival Queen Competition is a staple of the annual Independence Festival celebrations, and seeks to find the 13 most culturally aware, intelligent and poised young women from across the island each year.
