The Vietnamese girl was named together with 19 other contestants from Cambodia, Guatemala, Mexico, Thailand, Peru, Japan, El Salvador, Panama, South Africa, the Dominican Republic, the Czech Republic, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Indonesia, Myanmar, Argentina, Brazil, the UK, and Kenya, in a bikini performance following their self-introduction.

Despite her self-confident showing on the stage, Ngoc Thao scored 8.75 points, failing to qualify for the top 10.

Prior to the finale, Ngoc Thao was one of the five contestants with the highest number of votes for the Miss Popular Vote award. However, the Malaysian contestant won the only ticket to enter the Top 10.

Miss USA Abena Akuaba Appiah was crowned Miss Grand International 2020. The first and second runners-up went to Miss Philippines Samantha Bernardo and Miss Guatemala Ivana Batchelor.
