Miss Grand Argentina is a national title bestowed upon a woman chosen to represent Argentina at the annual international pageant, Miss Grand International. [1] [2] [3] The title was mentioned for the first time in 2013 when the winner of Reina Nacional del Carnaval, Susel Jacquet, was chosen to represent the country at the inaugural edition of Miss Grand International in Thailand. [4] [5] The franchise was then transferred to different organizers every few years, such as Sambrizzi Producción of Mathias Sambrizzi in 2023 [6] and Malena Gonzalez in 2025. [7]
Since their debut in 2013, Argentina's representatives have yet to win the Miss Grand International title. The highest and only one placement is the top 10 finalists in 2020, obtained by Mariana Varela . [8]
Argentina debuted in Miss Grand International in 2013, but all of the country representatives were appointed to the position, and no preliminary national pageant was explicitly held for Miss Grand International. The franchise license was previously managed by several organizers such as Iron Tree SRL in 2021 and 2022, [9] and a Buenos Aires-based event organizer, Sambrizzi Producción, from 2023 [6] to 2024. [10]
In 2021, the former licensee, Marcelo Shaya, was unable to meet the international firm's requirements due to a lack of funds, [3] causing the original representative, Alina Luz Akselrad, to withdraw and be replaced by Florencia de Palo, [11] who was appointed by a new licensee, Tais Ibarra [12] of Iron Tree SRL.
The stand-alone Miss Grand Argentina pageant took place only once, in August 2025.
