Mr. & Miss Inclusive Kenya, a pageant that brings together contestants of all abilities, is entering its second year with an even bigger platform.
The event, first held in August 2024, was launched with auditions at Uhuru Park before a grand finale at Charter Hall
The inaugural crown went to Mercyline, a visually impaired contestant, whose win was widely celebrated as a milestone for inclusivity in Kenyan pageantry.
On August 16, 2025, the pageant returned with its second edition at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC), drawing more than 500 guests.
The evening featured fashion showcases and talent performances in music, dance, and art, with models including persons with disabilities and plus-size contestants taking to the runway.
Organisers say the aim is to challenge stereotypes around beauty and to create a stage where diversity and self-expression are at the centre.
The grand finale of the 2025 edition is scheduled for November, when the next winners will be crowned.
