Photogenic Award for Haris Eloy

During MGE, the final award to become the new ambassador is not the only award. There’s several more. And there was one finalist who took the bait to all these awards. Kadeem van de Pol wins Congeniality Award and more. The largest catch was for Kadeem. Kadeem represented the Netherlands during the Mr Gay Europe pageant. Kadeem, a resident of the Dutch town of Tilburg, won four awards. Congratulations, Kadeem! The sky is not the limit. Kadeem, who recovered from a series of strokes in 2022, hopes to show that, with the right motivation and perseverance, the sky is not the limit, that you can be limitless. He developed a project that leverages the power of community for the benefit of suicide prevention among the queer community.

Michael Pereira crowned Mr Gay Europe 2025. Michael, representing Switzerland, entered the competition with his campaign "Safe to Grow". According to the organisation, his journey was marked by "courage, vision, and a deep personal commitment to LGBTQIA+ rights and visibility".
