Miss Ecuador 2024 is Eunice Rivadeneira from Guayaquil
Eunice Rivadeneira was crowned Miss Ecuador 2024 on Saturday, August 17 at the Salinas Golf & Tennis Club in the beautiful coastal city of Salinas. The 24-year-old architect from Guayaquil beat 20 other contestants to win the national pageant. She is now expected to represent Ecuador at Miss International 2025. Galia Garcia was named first runner-up while Dagmar Prieto, Romina Murillo, Melany Padilla, and Isabella Sotomayor were the second, third, fourth, and fifth runners-up, respectively. The new Miss Ecuador succeeds last year's winner Delary Stoffers, who went on to compete in Miss Universe 2023 in El Salvador last November. This year, the Concurso Nacional de Belleza Ecuador (CNB Ecuador) took over the license for Miss Universe Ecuador from the Miss Ecuador organization. A standalone pageant for Miss Universe Ecuador was held last June where Mara Topic was selected as Ecuador's representative to Miss Universe 2024 in Mexico this November. Meet the new Miss Ecuador:
