The Mr Continental Contest is held during Labor Weekend each year in Chicago in conjunction with the Miss Continental Pageant. It is considered one of the most coveted titles to hold in the art of male entertainment. The contest was conceived by Mr. Jim Flint after witnessing the limited avenues available to male performers in the U.S.  The male competition compete within the same categories expected of all Continental Contestants:  Group Interview, Presentation, Swimwear, Talent, Evening Wear, and On-Stage Question.​ Since it's inception the Mr Continental Pageant has become one of the premiere male entertainment competitions in the business.  Just as the Miss Continental Pageant, the Mr Continental Contest has become known for fairness and expecting the best its contestant have to offer.  As those who have competed can tell you that there is no other system run at the pace and level of professionalism that is exemplifies in the timeliness of any Continental pageant/contest. If you have never had the opportunity to be a part of the Continental Family, plan to expect the very best in the art of female impersonation and a competition like you've never seen before.
