Miss Grand Spain (Spanish: Miss Grand España) is a national femalebeauty pageant inSpain that has been held annually since 2016 to select the country representatives to compete inMiss Grand International pageant.[1][2] Its inaugural edition was held inSeville with 24provinces andautonomous communities participating; in which Adriana Sánchez Rivas ofMálaga won the main title.[3][4] The pageant has been owned by Vicente Gonzalez since the establishment.[5][6]
The reigning Miss Grand Spain is Aitana Jiménez ofLleida who was crowned on 14 June 2025 at Pabellón Auditorio Miguel Ángel Cerezo Nieto, inAdamuz.[7] Jiménez will represented the country at theMiss Grand International 2025 pageant inBangkok,Thailand, on 18 October[citation needed]
Miss Grand Spain was held for the first time in 2016 after Vicente Gonzalez took over the franchise from the former owner, Marcel Arnalot Salazar, in 2015.[5] Fewprovincial pageants were held to select their representatives for the inaugural edition such as Miss Grand Sevilla, Miss Grand Huelva, and Miss Grand Ciudad Real.[8][9][10] However, the number of its preliminary contest was significantly increased to 24 in the 2021 edition.[11] In some provinces, for instance,Seville,Huelva, andCádiz, local pageants are also held to determine delegates for the province competition,[12][13] in which winners hold the title "Miss Grand (Province)" for the year of their reign.[1] Some runners-up of the provincial pageants might be appointed to represent the neighboring provinces in case the directors of such provinces were lacking.[14][15]
The pageant was canceled in 2020 due to theCOVID-19 pandemic. It was originally scheduled to be held at the Fair Pavilion in the city ofDaimiel inCiudad Real Province on 3 October, with 31 provincial representatives.[6][16][17] Nonetheless, all candidates instead gained the right to participate inLas Palmas for the succeeding edition, Miss Grand Spain 2021.[18][19] The event also featured the presence of Dori Rodríguez fromNavarre, the first openlytransgender contestant to compete for the Miss Grand Spain title.[20]
