Background
Pageantry
Miss Belgium
The road to Miss Belgium 2023 election was hard[3] with the horror accident of the previous title holder, Miss Belgium 2022, Chayenne Van Aarle and a threat of terror attack on the day of the coronation.[1][3] Hours before the coronation, the Limburg police received an information that a man was on his way to the venue to carry out his terror attack. Massive federal police were deployed on-site and the suspect was apprehended.[3][1] Once the venue is declared safe, the program has commenced.[1][4]
At the end of the event, 21-year old Vansteenkiste from Elewijt was crowned as the new Miss Belgium.[1][3]
