Miss Grand Balearic Islands (Spanish : Miss Grand Islas Baleares) is a Spanish provincial female beauty pageant, [1] [2] [3] founded by Hugo Micaelo in 2019. [4] The pageant's winners represent Balearic Islands in the Miss Grand Spain national competition. [1] [5] [6] [7]

Contents

Since the first competition in the Miss Grand Spain pageant, Balearic Islands representatives won the main title once; by Mariana Rico in 2017. [8]

History

After Vicente Gonzalez acquired the license for Miss Grand Spain in 2015, he began franchising the provincial competitions to individual organizers, who would name the provincial representatives to compete in the national pageant the following year. In the Balearic Islands, the license was granted to a Mallorca-based designer and event organizer, Hugo Micaelo, who organized the first Miss Grand Balearic Islands in 2019, [4] and Sorina Dolghieru was named the first Miss Grand Balearic Islands electing via the regional pageant.

The pageant was halted for two consecutive years from 2021 to 2022 due to lacking licensees. It was revived in 2023 after former Miss La Rioja 2005, Marian Valdemoros, and Lucía Fernández, obtained the license. [6]

From 2016 to 2018, Balearic Islands joined the Miss Grand Spain pageant with appointed representatives, two of whom were the finalists in Miss Grand Spain's provincial competitions, held in Malaga and Sevilla. [8] [9] [10]
