Miss Grand Barcelona is a Spanish provincial female beauty pageant, [1] [2] [3] founded by Tamara Llorente in 2018. [2] The pageant's winners represent the province of Barcelona either in Miss Grand Spain or Miss Grand Catalonia pageants. [4] [5]
Since the first competition in the Miss Grand Spain pageant, Barcelona representatives have not won the main title yet. The highest obtained placement was the top 11, won by an appointed Jennifer Hueso in 2017. [6] Meanwhile, at the autonomy-level competition, Miss Grand Barcelona's representative, Carla Domènech, won the title of Miss Grand Lleida in 2023.
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. [7] [8] [9] In the province of Barcelona, the license was granted to an event organizer, Tamara Llorente, who organized the first Miss Grand Barcelona in 2018 when Marta Bellido was named the first Miss Grand Barcelona elected via the provincial pageant directly. [2] From 2016 to 2017, Barcelona joined the Miss Grand Spain pageant with the representation of appointed representatives. [10] [11]
From 2018 to 2022, the winner of the Miss Grand Barcelona pageant directly qualified for the national contest. [2] Later in 2023, after the establishment of an autonomy-level pageant, Miss Grand Catalonia, the representatives of the province of Barcelona for Miss Grand Spain were determined through such a contest, [12] and the winners of the Miss Grand Barcelona pageants would be assigned to represent one of the municipalities in the said autonomy-level pageant instead. [13] [14] [15]
In 2021, in addition to the main provincial stage, local pageants were also held in Anoia, Baix Llobregat, and Osona, to determine delegates for the province competition. [4] [16] [17] [18]
