Miss Teen USA 2019 was the 37th Miss Teen USA pageant. It was held at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, Nevada, on April 28, 2019, and was hosted by Miss USA 2014 Nia Sanchez and Tim Tialdo.

This was the first time in the history of Miss Teen USA winning back-to-back titles by African Americans.
The 2019 competition served as the second consecutive time that the pageant has been held concurrently with the Miss USA competition. For the first time, both the preliminary and final competitions were held on the same day.
51 delegates from the 50 states and the District of Columbia were selected in state pageants held from September 2018 to January 2019.
Prior to the final competition, the delegates competed the preliminary competition, which involved private interviews with the judges and a presentation show where they competed in athletic wear and evening gown. It was held on April 28 at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno-Tahoe. For the first time since 2017, the preliminary round was broadcast. [3]
During the final competition, the Top 15 finalists competed in athletic wear, evening gown and in a customized final question round, and the winner was decided by a panel of judges.
The pageant was webcast on the pageant's Facebook and YouTube pages, as downloadable live events available on the Asian and American PlayStation Stores for PlayStation 4 consoles and on Xbox Live in 41 regions for the Xbox One line of consoles via the Facebook Video application, with support for 4K Ultra HD, Dolby Vision and HDR10 video [lower-alpha 1] and Dolby Atmos spatial audio.
