Miss Grand Campania is an Italian regional female beauty pageant,[1][2][3][4] founded in 2019 by Luca De Simone and Crescenzo De Carmine who organized two separated regional events in Mirabella Eclano and Montesarchio, respectively.[5][6][7] The winners of the contest represent the region of Campania in the Miss Grand Italy national pageant.[1][8][9][10]

Since the foundation of the Miss Grand Italy pageant, Campania candidates obtained the main title once in 2020, won by Filomena Venuso.[11][12] The other placements they obtained remain unclarified due to a lack of national competition results publicized by both regional and national organizers.

History

After the Miss Grand Italy director, Giuseppe Puzio, began franching the regional competitions to local organizers in 2019, the license for Campania was granted to Crescenzo De Carmine.[13][14][15] In cooperation with the director of Miss Grand Basilicata, Dario Marena, the first contest of 'Miss Grand Campania' was then held parallelly with Miss Grand Basilicata on 31 August of that year at the Centro Commerciale Liz Gallery in Montesarchio,[13][14][16]

The contest featured 20 contestants, of whom, a model Erika Argenziano was named Miss Grand Campania 2019,[13][17] while Mirea Sorrentino was elected Miss Grand Basilicata.[13][18][17] Other two regional final of Miss Grand Campania 2019 happened in Mirabella Eclano and San Bartolomeo in Galdo; the winner of which also qualified for the national stage.[5][19][20] The competition license was then transferred to Emanuele Porcelli in 2021.[21][22]

Later in 2022, the license was then taken over by Franco Capasso.[2][23] Under his direction, several local pageants, such as in Naples and San Martino Valle Caudina, was organized to determined the candidates for the region-level contest.[2][24] Capasso also served as the pageant director in 2023 and 2024.[1][25]
