Miss Grand Russia is a national beauty pageant title awarded to Russian representatives competing at the Miss Grand International pageant. [1] [2] [3] [4] The title was first awarded in 2013, when a Moscow-based television personality, Anyuta Volkova, was appointed to compete in the inaugural edition of Miss Grand International in Thailand, where the headquarter of the pageant was located.
