Miss Grand International 2013 was the 1st edition Miss Grand International pageant, held at the Impact Arena in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi, Thailand, on 19 November 2013.

After Nawat Itsaragrisil ended his role as a producer of the beauty pageant Miss Thailand World for BEC-Tero of Channel 3 in 2012, he established his own pageant, launching Miss Grand Thailand in 2013 in partnership with Channel 3's rival, Channel 7, [6] as well as the international platform Miss Grand International, whose first edition's press release was arranged on 22 October 2013, at the Pathumwan Princess Hotel, Bangkok. [7] [8] In such an event, the pageant schedule was revealed. The pageant camp was set to happen from 3–19 November in three different cities, including Chiang Mai, [9] Pattaya, [10] and Bangkok. [8] [3] [11] [12] [7] [13] [14] [15] [16]
The pageant consisted of four main sub-events, including the national costume contest held at the Promenada Resort Mall , Chiang Mai, on 8 November; [17] [18] the swimsuit competition held on 13 October at the Zign Hotel, Pattaya; [13] and the preliminary and final rounds held in Bangkok on 17 and 19 October at the IMPACT Arena, Nonthaburi. [7] [8]
Since it was the first edition of the pageant, most of its contestants were appointed to compete; some of them were runners-up of other national pageants. Only three countries organized the national pageants individually to select their representatives for Miss Grand, including Malaysia, [19] [20] Thailand, [21] and Zimbabwe. [22] [23] However, the Zimbabwe winner was later replaced by an appointed representative due to the national team's internal conflicts. [24] [25]
