A Night of Grace,

The Sash Ceremony marks the official opening of the Miss Tourism World Grand Final week. It is a deeply symbolic occasion — each contestant steps forward to receive her sash, representing not only herself but the culture, heritage, and tourism of her entire nation.

Held in a grand ballroom setting, the evening brings together contestants, national directors, dignitaries, and media from around the world. The ceremony is followed by a gala dinner and cultural performances, creating an unforgettable celebration of global diversity.

The 2022 edition took place in Vietnam, hosting women from over 30 nations across Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania — a true testament to the unifying power of beauty and tourism.
