The search for the new Mr Gay Europe has begun!
The 16th edition of this prestigious event will take place during the iconic Amsterdam Pride and promises to be a spectacular four-day celebration of inclusivity, culture, and the festive Pride atmosphere.
From July 29 to August 2, 2025, visitors and participants can experience the best the city has to offer, with one of the highlights being the grand finale on the Bar Blend MainStage at Dam Square , the vibrant heart of Amsterdam.
Mr Gay Europe 2025 seeks the successor to the current titleholder, Tim Küsters from the Netherlands, who has been a source of inspiration for the LGBTQ+ community across Europe during his reign. This year, the competition is bigger, more exciting, and more diverse than ever, with an extensive program that will take participants and spectators on a journey through Amsterdam, while immersing them in the city’s welcoming Pride vibe.
In addition to the many activities and challenges the contestants will face, including workshops, panel discussions, and team-building events, they will also have the opportunity to experience the rich culture and diversity of Amsterdam.
The winner and new titleholder will be rewarded with an impressive prize package, headlined by a 9-day Vacaya Cruise along the beautiful Mediterranean coast & a fantastic trip above the polar circle to join the Arctic Pride under the northern light. It’s a unique chance to not only become a role model for the LGBTQ+ community but also embark on new adventures.
The 2025 edition is organized by Bram Bierkens and Tim Küsters. Bram is a recognized professional in the entertainment industry. As the executive producer of Mr Gay Europe and casting director at the television production company Banijay, he has made his mark on numerous successful projects. Together with the current Mr Gay Europe, he will elevate the competition to new heights.
