Miss Grand Bali is an Indonesian provincial beauty pageant, a preliminary for the Miss Grand Indonesia national contest.[1][2][3][4] It was founded in 2018 by an entrepreneur, Putu Ayu Sita Laksmi.[5]
Bali representatives have not yet won the Miss Grand Indonesia title. The highest placement they obtained was the first runner-up, achieved in 2019 by Cindy Yuliani.[6][7]
After the Miss Grand Indonesia pageant began franchising the right to send candidates to the national competition in 2018, the license for Bali was obtained by a local entrepreneur, Putu Ayu Sita Laksmi.[5] As per the press conference held in April 2018, 58 candidates submitted for the contest but only 10 were elected to compete in the final round,[8][9] which was held on May 19, 2018, at the Harris Hotel & Residences Sunset Road in Kuta[8] and Putu Ayu Sasadevi was named the winner.[10]
Later in 2019, the license was then transferred to another organizer team led by Ni Luh Pebriani Dewi.[3][11]
The pageant was dissolved in 2020 after the national license of Miss Grand Indonesia was granted to Ivan Gunawan,[12][13] who decided not to franchise the provincial licenses to local organizers and instead selected the finalists for the Miss Grand Indonesia 2020 through the online application.[13][14] Gunawan also established a national pageant, Miss Mega Bintang Indonesia, as an umbrella pageant for Miss Grand Indonesia in 2023.[15]
