A swimsuit competition is a beauty contest in which people wearing swimsuits compete against each other for prizes including trophies and money. Many showcase women wearing minimal bikinis. Swimsuit competitions may be organized or sponsored by companies for marketing purposes like NOPI's annual "Hot Import Nights" bikini contest, which is held in conjunction with the import car-show in Atlanta, Georgia, and the annual Hooter's bikini competition. Competitions are held in bars and nightclubs, during intermissions of boxing or wrestling matches, and at car shows. Bodybuilding competitions may also feature bikini contest segments.
