Le Xuan Son, editor-in-chief of Tien Phong (Vanguard) Newspaper and head of the Organising Board, says the preliminary round of the pageant will take place in the southern and northern regions on September 26 and September 29, respectively. Following this, the semi-final night is scheduled to be held on October 10, with the grand final set for late November.

The winner of the contest will receive a crown and a cash prize of VND500 million. First and second runners-up will be given a prize of VND300 million and VND250 million, respectively.
