It was revealed that Lebanese singer Elissa would be performing during the event.
International Lebanese jeweler Mouawad was the crown sponsor for this pageant, and provided the Cedar of Hope crown.
As is customary, a Lebanese fashion designer Tony Ward was chosen to provide evening gowns to the contestants.
