edit

The Mr. Pakistan World contest first took place in Toronto, Canada. The first winner of Mr. Pakistan World was Moonzir Butt in 2011, followed by Shan Virk in 2012[1]. In 2014[2], the contest was held in New Jersey, USA, where Sher Khan[3] was declared the winner. This was the only year the pageant took place in the USA and since then moved back to Canada. Hassan Bhatti[4], Mr. Pakistan World 2015 was the first candidate to represent Pakistan in international competition. In 2019, Mazan Saeed Shareef, was sent to two international pageants, where as Kevaan Hasnain was scheduled to go to international pageants as Mr. Pakistan World but the pageants were postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

From 2011-2013 the event took place in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada and then in 2014 it was moved to New Jersey, USA. Sher Khan was the winner awarded in New Jersey, USA. Since 2015, the event was back in Toronto, Canada and has been held in Canada since then.

The competition showcases the youth through culture and the entertainment industry of Pakistan. Besides the competition, the winners go to international pageants and bring Pakistan on the map of international pageants.

The first ever Mr. Pakistan World to enter into international pageants was Hassan Bhatti, Mr. Pakistan World 2015 in 2017 and then Mazan Saeed Shareef, Mr. Pakistan World 2019 in 2019.
