TimeTicket Production, operated by TimeTicket Inc. (HQ: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Masato Kagam), has entered into a business partnership with Miss Grand Japan Inc., the organizer of Miss Grand Japan and Mr. Gay Japan.

This partnership aims to create a participatory contest experience where viewers can 'support' candidates through live streaming. In the era of social media, pageants are evolving beyond a few minutes on stage; candidates' daily communications and personalities are now vital parts of the evaluation. Through this collaboration, candidates will share their values and messages directly via TikTok LIVE.

TimeTicket Production, a winner of the TikTok LIVE Agency Awards, brings extensive expertise in creator support and event management. Following their successful support of pageant selection processes via TikTok LIVE last year, they will continue to enhance the fan engagement experience this year.

About Miss Grand Japan An annual national pageant since 2015 focused on female empowerment and global leadership. The 2026 Japan final is scheduled for August 10, with the international final taking place in India in October.

About Mr. Gay Japan A platform to discover and nurture role models who send positive messages to improve the LGBTQ+ environment and promote understanding of same-sex marriage in Japan.

TimeTicket intends to strengthen its support for live stream planning in contests and auditions, contributing to a society where individuals can shine.
