IF you think you have that special something called the X-Factor, then get your entries in for the Mr/Miss Umhlanga 2016 event, which is part of the Umhlanga Summer Festival.
Entry is free and the pageant forms a great platform for aspiring models to get future exposure in the modeling and photography industry. The event has been running for seven years and it is the perfect opportunity to be discovered, as many past winners have gone on to become national and international stars.
Age groups run in both ladies’ and men’s divisions from masters to babies. The open ladies’ and men’s division winners will win a weekend away valued at R5 000 to the Lord of the Manors Boutique Hotel for two. Winners and runners up will also receive prizes, tiaras and sashes plus other interesting packages.
The competition takes place on Umhlanga Main Beach Millennium Stage on Friday 16 December. Registration is at 11am and the show will begin at noon.
All entries must be in by 5pm on 15 December. There will be no entries on the day.
The Umhlanga Summer Festival begins on Saturday 10 December with the Lizzard Hurricane Summer Surf competition and runs on the beach until 23 December.
