Contents

Since the foundation of the Miss Grand Italy pageant, Calabria candidates have never won the main title yet, and the placements they obtained remain unclarified due to a lack of summarized national competition results publicized by both regional and national organizers.

History

After the Miss Grand Italy director, Giuseppe Puzio, began franchising the competition licenses to local organizers in 2019, the franchise of Calabria was then purchased by a modeling agency named Pubblistar 2000, chaired by Enzo Lamberto, [4] [6] [7] who organized the first Miss Grand Calabria pageant on 3 September 2019, at the Lungomare Hotel, Reggio Calabria. [6] Later in 2021, Lamberto lost the license to a fashion consultant Massimo Spano of Focalizza Agency. [2] [5] [8] [9]

From 2022 to 2023, the competition license belonged to Mimmo Luzzi, [10] [11] who is also the organizer of another regional pageant named Miss Corigliano-Rossano. [12] It was then taken over by Giuseppe Caggegi in 2024. [13]

Several local auditions and contests were organized annually to determine the finalists for the Miss Grand Calabria pageant. [1] [14] [15]
