Carlos Adyan will serve as main host for the 2027 Miss Universe pageant, which will be held in Puerto Rico. This will be his first time in the lead host role for the event.

Adyan stated the hosting role fulfills a childhood dream he formed watching the 2001 edition of the pageant, when Denise Quiñones won the title.

On the same filing date, reigning Miss Universe Fátima Bosch denied that she had created a list of favoured contestants ahead of the 2026 pageant.
