Organizers' Vision
Rampa Cebu organizers Neil Kristian Veligaño and Mary Ann Moreno expressed confidence that their newly crowned queens are ready to compete in national and international teens and kids beauty pageants. In fact, Akeisha Tecson Tatoy, Rampa Cebu 2025 Kids Grand Winner, competed in the Cebu-based national pageant Mabuhay Beauties.
"We are still finalizing our partnerships with national and local competitions to further expose our Cebuana queens on the global stage," said Veligaño. Moreno added that they aim to nurture the dreams of every young beauty queen and prepare them for bigger competitions ahead. "More than the crown, we want our beauty queens to be role models and an inspiration to aspiring young beauty queens," she added.
Upcoming All Stars Competition
The organizers also revealed that an All Stars competition is in the works, set to feature all Rampa Cebu winners in December 2026. Rampa Cebu was founded in 2021 with the vision of helping every young Cebuana beauty queen realize her dream in the pageant industry. A press conference was held on May 22, 2026 presenting the winners of 2025 and 2026 including Lianah Agnese T. Masellis, Rampa Cebu 2025 Kids Tourism.
