Miss Grand Emilia-Romagna is an Italian regional female beauty pageant,[1][2][3][4] founded in 2021 by Nicola Coccoli and Slavka Nanona.[5][6][7] The winners of the contest represent the region of Emilia-Romagna in the Miss Grand Italy national pageant.[1][2][4]

Since the inception of the Miss Grand Italy pageant, Emilia-Romagna candidates have never won the contest yet; the highest placement they obtained was the top 10 finalist, won by Sophia Blanca Schettino in 2022.[8]

History

The Miss Grand Emilia-Romagna pageant was organized for the first time by local organizers Nicola Coccoli and Slavka Nanona on 17 September 2021.[5][6][7] The contest consisted of 11 finalists who qualified for the region-level pageant through local auditions held in Rubiera,[9] Bagnolo in Piano,[7] and Campogalliano.[6] At the end of the event, a model Meghi Patozi was elected the first Miss Grand Emilia-Romagna.[10] Since 2023, the competition license has belonged to another organizer, Carmelo Tornatore.[2][3][11]

Several local auditions were organized annually to determine the finalists for the regional pageant.[12][10][13] Besides the main winner, some finalists were also sent to compete nationally in the Miss Grand Italy pageant.[1]
