The 48 contestants are broken into three groups, with each group competing in a different preliminary competition each evening. This evening Group A competed in Evening Gown and On-Stage Question, Group B competed in Talent and Group C competed in the Lifestyle, Fitness and Swimsuit. The top 10 finalists from the preliminary rounds, along with an 11th “People’s Choice” competitor will, be announced at Saturday evening’s Pageant Finals.
