Alternative Crown Jewels

21 July – 23 September 2018

Andrew Logan

The brain-child of artist Andrew Logan, the Alternative Miss World is a 46-year-old tradition among the global community.

It celebrates the different and defines the new.

Since 1972, artist Andrew Logan has hosted his celebrated pageants, attracting global audiences and contestants, whenever he feels the time is right. For 2018 the theme is Psychedelic Peace. Logan says: ‘It is about Peace and Love for Humanity.’

For 2018 the event will return to Shakespeare’s Globe in London on Saturday 20 October – and the tickets have already SOLD OUT. However, here in Ruthin this summer is your chance to see a ‘sneak peek’ of this year’s crowning glory for the winner along with a selection of some of the past Alternative Miss World regalia (crowns, scepters and orbs as well as splendid robes).
