Miss Grand Yangon (Burmese: ငြိမ်းချမ်းရေးအလှမယ် ရန်ကုန်) is a Myanmar's local female beauty pageant in the region of Yangon,[1][2][3] founded in 2024 as a preliminary stage for the Miss Grand Myanmar national pageant.[1][4][5] In addition to determining the four district representatives of the region, some finalists were also assigned to represent other districts outside the Region of Yangon to compete in the national event.[1][4]
Yangon has not yet won the Miss Grand Myanmar contest. The highest placement of Yangon was in the Top 10, achieved by Winn Thawdar Aung of South Yangon in 2024.[6] Miss Grand Yangon have been discontinued. Due to problems with the Organization.
History
[edit]The Miss Grand Yangon pageant was organized for the first time in 2024 to select four representatives for the Miss Grand Myanmar 2024 national pageant.[1][2] The organizer then extended the license to 2025,[7] in which its four winners were expected to participate in the 2025 national contest, but due to the national franchise change, the four Yangon winners were automatically disqualified; they later participated in the Miss World Myanmar 2025 instead.[8]
