Miss South Africa 2014 was the 56th edition of the Miss South Africa pageant, held at the Sun City Superbowl in Rustenburg, on March 30, 2014.

The pageant was won by Rolene Strauss who, in the December of the same year, was also crowned Miss World.[2] Strauss' winning of the Miss World title made her ineligible for Miss Universe; this led to Miss South Africa 2014 first runner up Ziphozakhe Zokufa being crowned Miss South Africa,[3] to allow Zokufa to compete for the Miss Universe 2014 crown.[4]
