Miss Philippines Earth 2026 was the 26th Miss Philippines Earth pageant, held at the Cultural Center in Malitbog, Bukidnon, on June 27, 2026.

Rina Andrea delos Santos of Ballesteros, Cagayan, won the competition, succeeding Joy Barcoma of Bacoor, who was not able to attend the event. As a result, she received her title from Natálie Puškinová, the winner of Miss Earth 2025. Delos Santos will represent the Philippines at Miss Earth 2026.

Delos Santos's runners-up, organized as the "elemental court", include Prima Joy Alamban of Tumauini as Miss Philippines Air, Alyssa Mildred Villariña of Mandaluyong as Miss Philippines Water, Patricia Bangug of Agoo as Miss Philippines Fire, and Roveelaine Eve Castillo of Siocon as Miss Philippines Eco-Tourism.

Pageant

Format

As with previous editions, the candidates are evaluated based on their ability to "promote sustainability" and "inspire communities to take part in protecting the environment".[11] The delegates are pre-judged in several categories—including intelligence, environmental awareness, face, fitness, and form—in contests held in the weeks leading up to the final competition.[12] These events determine the first 14 finalists, whom will be joined by an additional delegate through the Miss People's Choice poll, creating a total of 15 finalists competing for the title.[13][14]

On coronation night, all finalists compete in the swimsuit competition, from which ten will be chosen to proceed to the next round.[6] The following round sees the candidates compete in the evening gown segment, before participating in a question-and-answer round.[6] In this portion, the finalists are given 30 seconds to relate their environmental advocacy to a randomly selected word.[6] Five candidates are selected from this pool to proceed in the final question-and-answer round, with the eliminated finalists named as runners-up.[6] In the final question-and-answer round, all candidates are asked the same question, at which point the winner and the elemental court are determined.[6]

Broadcast

The pageant was broadcast live on YouTube, with a delayed telecast following the next day on the Kapamilya Channel and its affiliate network All TV.[15] The coronation night was hosted by James Deakin with a special appearance from Natálie Puškinová, the reigning Miss Earth.[6] The event did not feature outgoing titleholder Joy Barcoma, forgoing her customary farewell walk for an undisclosed reason.[16][17] Puškinová ultimately took over her role in turning over the crown to her successor.[18]

Grand Santacruzan

The delegates participated in the “Entre Flores y Coronas” Grand Santacruzan on May 23, 2026, at Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar in Bataan in collaboration with Designers Circle Philippines. The event featured the delegates in royal-inspired Filipiniana creations that aimed to celebrate Filipino heritage, faith, and fashion tradition, with the reigning elemental queens of Miss Philippines Earth 2025 joining the procession as traditional Santacruzan figures. At the end of the event, the top three contestants for the competition were given the title "natatanging reina" (transl. distinguished queen).[24]
