Miss Grand Ghana is a Ghanaian female beauty pageant, founded in 2020 by Accra-based pageant organizer Legacy Pageants Limited, chaired by Sandy Amissah. [1] The winners of the contest represent the country at its parent international stage, Miss Grand International, [2] [3] [4] [5] while the rest of its finalists are sent to compete on other international platforms. [6] [7] In 2022, the license of Miss Grand Ghana was taken over by Abena Appiah, a former Miss Grand International, who has owned and run the contest annually since then. [4] [6] [8]
The reigning Miss Grand Ghana is Priscilla Bossman of the Central Region, who was crowned on July 8 at the National Theatre of Ghana in Accra. She later represented the country at Miss Grand International 2022 in Indonesia, [6] [8] [4] but went unplaced. [9] Previously, Ghana participated in the Miss Grand International pageant twice, in 2015 and 2018, [10] [11] but both of them also got a non-placement. [12] [13]
Since the inception of Miss Grand International, Ghana has sent three contestants to participate: the first in 2015 by a Dutch-born Ghanaian "Charlee Berbicks", [10] followed by a former Queen of Peace Africa 2015 "Helen Demay Matey" in 2018, [11] and the most recent by Priscilla Bossman, the winner of the Miss Grand Ghana 2022 pageant; [6] [8] [4] but none of them qualified for the top 20 finalists round. [12] [13]
In 2020, on August 9, Legacy Pageants Limited, under the direction of Sandy Amissah, held the first Miss Grand Ghana pageant at Christ the King Parish in Accra. [14] The event was hosted by an actor, Achieva Evans, and featured seven candidates representing seven country regions, of whom "Pamela Clement" of the Western Region was named the winner; however, she did not join the international competition Miss Grand International 2020 for undisclosed reasons. [15]
Later in 2022, after Abena Appiah, the titleholder of Miss Grand International 2020, had acquired the franchise of Miss Grand Ghana, [1] she eventually organized the second contest to select the representative for the international stage. [4] [6] [8] The national finalists for such an edition were determined through the face-to-face audition held on 17 April in Accra, and then the qualified candidates were additionally assigned to represent one of the country's regions. [2] [16] The grand final of the contest was later held on 8 July at the National Theatre in Accra, and consisted of 16 finalists representing 16 country's regions, [4] [5] of whom Priscilla Bossman of the Central Region was announced the winner. [4] [6] [8] In addition to Miss Grand International 2022, the finalists of the contest were also sent to other international competitions, such as Miss Asia Pacific International and Queen Beauty Universe.
