This year's Miss South Pacific will be crowned tonight, concluding a week-long pageant that's been held for the first time in Fiji.

The theme of the 22-year-old contest is "preserving our environment the Pacific way."

Today's activities include cultural entertainment and sporting competitions at three venues around Suva's Albert Park.

Judging of the 12 contestants takes place on the main stage tonight.

Papua New Guinea is to stage next year's contest.
