Fifty candidates from around the world will compete to be current reigning Mister International Kirk Bondad's successor.
Aspiring male beauty pageant titlists from all over the world have another opportunity to win a crown as an international male beauty pageant has announced the date of its coronation night.
In one of the more recent posts on its official Instagram account, the Mister International organization announced that its coronation night will be held on September 26, 2026 at the MCC Hall, The Mall Lifestore Bangkapi in Bangkok, Thailand.
The 50 delegates set to take part in the pageant are competing to be the successor to current reigning Mister International Kirk Bondad, who was quick to express his gratitude for the support he received while competing.
In the caption to his Instagram post, Kirk declared that his winning moment was bigger than himself and was a testament to faith, hard work, and the power of a nation rallying behind one dream. He then listed down the organizations and individuals who made his journey possible, from the Mister Pilipinas Worldwide organization, to designers Francis Libiran and Patrick Isorena, and to his family, friends, and fans in the Philippines and all over the world.

Since his win, Kirk Bondad has been traveling around the world and also sharing words of advice to his social media followers. Earlier this month, Kirk shared a Reel of him and the Mister International organization meeting representatives from the Thai prime minister's office. The text on the Reel read “Respect the culture if you're a visitor. Nobody likes uncultured tourists.”
In the caption to the post, Kirk Bondad explained that one of the representatives was teaching him the proper way of doing the “Wai”, a greeting involving a bow with the hands pressed together. Kirk concluded the caption by writing that people should listen when locals teach them their ways and that nothing is more annoying than a tourist who doesn't care to behave.
Back in January, Kirk Bondad advised aspiring male beauty pageant titlists to think about how they can say their answers with “raw authentic conviction.” Kirk further explained that pageantry is a sport, and that aspiring pageants queens and kings should consider themselves as athletes and conviction as their discipline.
“Absolute conviction to a point of delusion conditions yourself to follow through no matter what,” he wrote.
