Miss Grand Piauí is a Brazilian state-level female beauty pageant, founded in 2023 by an event organizer, Everton Cesar,[1] to select the representatives of Piauí for the Miss Grand Brazil pageant.[1][2][3] The competition license was transferred to Eltton Carvalho, who has owned and run the pageant since 2024.[2][4]

Since establishing the Miss Grand Brazil pageant, Piauí representatives have yet to win or obtain any placement in the contest.

History

The state of Piauí began participating in the Miss Grand Brazil pageant in 2022 with the representation of an appointed Ana Paula Souza.[5] Later in 2023, the right to send Piauí candidate to Miss Grand Brazil was granted to the organizer of the Miss e Mister Model Piauí pageant, Everton Cesar, and the winner of that year's state event was automatically assumed Miss Grand Piauí 2023.[1]

Everton Cesar later organized the first Miss Grand Piauí in late 2023 to select the state representative for the Miss Grand Brazil 2024 pageant.[6][7] The contest, held on November 26 at the Blue Town Tower in Teresina, consisted of 13 finalists,[7] of whom a model Lara Rodrigues was named the winner.[6] However, due to the change of national franchise holder in 2024,[8][9] and the state license for Miss Grand Piauí 2024 was granted to another organizer,[4] Rodrigues was disqualified for the 2024 Miss Grand Brazil pageant and was sent to compete at another Miss Brazil CNB-organized pageant instead.[6]

In 2023, some cities, such as Floriano, local pageants were also organized to select their representatives for Miss Grand Piauí.[10]
