## Background
### Selection of participants

On August 23, 2023, the Miss World Philippines Organization announced that the organization is now accepting provincial directors who can handle the local franchise of the pageant. All candidates who won their local pageant or are appointed by their respective local franchise holder will automatically become candidates for Miss World Philippines.
On March 14, 2024, the organization launched its application for the next set of candidates who will compete alongside the contestants who were handpicked by their local franchise holder or won their local pageant. The final submission of the application was initially on April 12, 2024. However, on April 12, the organization extended their application deadline to April 22, 2024. The final screening occurred at the Glass Ballroom of Okada Manila on May 27, 2024. The contestants who passed the final screening and the local winners comprise this year's batch of contestants.
The thirty-five contestants were officially introduced to the media at the ballroom of Seda Manila Bay on June 22 during their official sashing ceremony. Starting this edition, candidates will not be numbered, and will instead use their respective localities as their designations.

#### Withdrawals

Among the thirty-five candidates introduced on June 22, two withdrew in the run-up to the pageant: Tanya Granados of Laguna and Paola Bagaforo of Taguig, with no reason given for their withdrawal.
