As a first-time competitor, it can be challenging to discover what to expect on a show day. Therefore, to prevent you from spending countless hours watching YouTube vlogs (as I did before my first WBFF competition), I would like to provide you with two examples of a typical show day schedule for me, one for an AUS show and another for a US show. The FMG show format will be similar to previous WBFF AUS shows.
Gold Coast Show Day (WBFF Bikini - Amateur)
Australian WBFF show days have a 'two show' format. One show in the morning for 'pre-judging', where the judges do most of their marking, and one show in the evening where awards are handed out. The evening show is more entertaining for the audience.

- 5.30am: Breakfast
- 6am: head back stage
- 6.30am: top coat tan
- 7.15am: hair & makeup
