To foster inclusivity and showcase the talents of the LGBTQ+ community of Masbate, contenders for the first-ever Miss Bekilandia 2024 allured the audience as they vied for the same title on April 8, 2024, at the Rodeo Saloon, Masbate Centennial Sports Complex.

The above-stated pageant was sponsored and organized by Ako Bicol Party List as part of the celebration for the 28th Rodeo Masbateño Festival.

A total of 10 candidates from different municipalities in Masbate gathered to compete for the crown.

Precious Lovemarie Robles Gelotin, who represented the municipality of San Jacinto, was crowned Miss Bekilandia 2024, followed by Jaimie Fasano from the municipality of Aroroy, who won first runner-up. Meanwhile, the second title was awarded to Ellise Gerbon Abejuela from the municipality of Milagros.

In an interview with Gelotin, she expressed her gratitude for winning the pageant. “...and I am so happy since nagkaroon naman kami ng bonding with my fellow TransKonteseras family and, of course, new faces,” she added.

“Miss Bekilandia is a bigger issue, or should I say platform, on our part as LGBTQ+ members, kasi, mas malaki yung crowd, mas malaki yung opportunity na maipakita namin yung talent namin, and maipakita namin kung sino at kung ano ang maging isang miyembro ng LGBTQ+ community,” Gelotin continued.

("Miss Bekilandia is a bigger issue, or should I say platform, for us as LGBTQ+ members because there is a larger crowd, which means there is a bigger opportunity for us to showcase our talents and to show who and what it means to be a member of the LGBTQ+ community.")

Several games that brought entertainment, including “Bring Me” and “Ako, Bicol” (similar to Hep Hep, Hooray), were also carried out during the said show.
