Miss Grand Minas Gerais is a Brazilian state-level female beauty pageant, [1] [2] [3] founded in 2021 by a Patos de Minas-based organizer, Braz Alves, [4] to select the representatives of Minas Gerais for the Miss Grand Brazil pageant. [5] [6] The competition license was transferred to Adriana Macedo, who has owned and run the pageant since 2024. [7]
Since the establishment of Miss Grand Brazil, Minas Gerais representatives have not won the title yet. The highest achievement they obtained was the first runner-up, won in 2019 by an appointed Lorena Rodrigues, [8] who was later appointed Miss Grand Brazil 2021 and received the second runner-up in the international competition held in Thailand. [9]
The state of Minas Gerais has participated in the Miss Grand Brazil pageant since the first edition which was held in 2014. [10] However, its first three representatives were appointed. The first Miss Grand Minas Gerais was held in November 2021 after the state franchise was granted to a local organizer led by Braz Alves. [1] [4] The contest, held on November 13 at the HZ Hotel in Patos de Minas, consisted of 20 finalists, [11] of whom a model Malu Camargos was elected the winner. [1] Camargos later participated in the national pageant held the following year and qualified for the top 12 round. [12] [13]
Later in 2024, Braz Alves planned to organize the 2024 state competition in Patos de Minas, on 17 January, [4] but lost the license to another local organizer, Adriana Macedo, [7] due to the change of national franchise holder. [14] [15]
In addition to the state-level contest, another regional event, Miss Grand Zona da Mata Mineira, was held in 2023 in the city of Barbacena. [16] [17] The event consisted of 12 candidates, of whom Adriana Yanca was named the winner. Yanca later participated in the Miss Grand Brazil 2023 pageant and won the title. [18]
