[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]
