Miss Grand Macau is a national beauty pageant title given to women chosen to represent Macau at the Miss Grand International pageant.[1][2][3][4] The title was first mentioned in 2013 when Tiffany Wong (Chinese: 黃伊婷) was assigned by Miss Macau organizer led by Laura Li [zh] named Macau Pageant Alliance (澳門選美連盟; MPA) to compete in the inaugural edition of Miss Grand International in Thailand.[5]

Macau has not yet won the Miss Grand International title. The highest and only placement of Macau candidates was in the top 10 finalists, achieved by Hio Man Chan in 2016.[3]

History

From 2013 to 2019, the right to send Macau candidates to Miss Grand International belonged to Macau Pageant Alliance (澳門選美連盟; MPA), headed by Laura Li [zh].[5][6] However, no national contest was specifically held to determine Miss Grand Macau titleholders during such a period; all representatives were appointed.[1][2][3][4][7]

Later in 2024, the license was granted to a Shenzhen-based entrepreneur, Carry Xie Lu Dan.
