For the FIRST time, 36 contestants will compete on the same stage, vying for both national and regional glory.

Malaysia and Singapore will be represented by 15 contestants each, while Indonesia will see the participation of 7 delegates.
Samuel Seow, CEO of Beam Artistes & founder of MR NUSANTARA shared,

“MR NUSANTARA is more than just a competition – it is a celebration of shared heritage and unity across the region. We are thrilled to bring together these three nations in a single spectacular event, showcasing the pride, talent, and spirit of the Malay Archipelago. Just as the region has faced significant challenges in the past, the first Mr Nusantara has also faced and braved its challenges. The format of the competition had to be changed too but like they say, ‘The show must go on.”
From the 36 candidates, a delegate from each country will win the title as “MR SINGAPORE NUSANTARA 2025“, “MR INDONESIA NUSANTARA 2025” & “MR MALAYSIA NUSANTARA 2025“.
These 3 titleholders will then battle it out through a thrilling twist in the competition, whereby the coveted title of “MR NUSANTARA CHAMPION” will be decided purely by online voting, making this the first pageant of its kind to fully empower fans in shaping the final outcome.
The stakes are high, as the winner of MR NUSANTARA will walk away with:
- a prize package worth USD 80, 000 in cash
- prizes, which also includes a brand-new car

The grand finals of MR NUSANTARA 2025 will be held at the classy Galaxy Banquet Hall @ HGH Convention Centre in Sentul, Kuala Lumpur, with guests being served scrumptious Malaysian food.

The organisers are also thrilled to announce that sensation Malaysian girl group DOLLA will be gracing and performing during the grand finals.
In mid-March 2025, Beam Artistes announced the candidates representing Malaysia and Singapore through their official social media platform, Instagram – @beamsearch.my & @beamsearch.sg ; while the candidates representing Indonesia were announced via @beamsearch.id.
The competition’s pageant week begins with the arrival of all delegates in Kuala Lumpur on 26 May 2025 and will conclude with the Grand Finals on 29th May 2025. It will be effectively run based on international pageant criteria.
The organisers hope more Malaysians, Singaporeans and Indonesians will come and support these talented delegates irrespective of their countries, as they embrace the spirit of ‘Serumpun Nusantara’.
