Miss Grand Buriram (Thai: มิสแกรนด์บุรีรัมย์) is a Thai provincial beauty pageant which selects a representative from Buriram province to the Miss Grand Thailand national competition.[1][2][3][4] It was founded in 2016[5] by a Sisaket-based producer Awirut Akkabut (อวิรุทธ์ อรรคบุตร).[6]
Buriram representatives have yet to win the Miss Grand Thailand title. The highest placement they obtained was the third runner-up, won by Nantapak Kraiha in 2018.[7][8]
In 2016, after Miss Grand Thailand began franchising the provincial competitions to individual organizers, who would name seventy-seven provincial titleholders to compete in the national pageant. The license for Buriram province was granted to a film producer from Sisaket, Awirut Akkabut,[6] who organized the first Miss Grand Buriram pageant in Mueang Buriram on May 15 19, 2016, and named Phattiya Rattanajariya from Lam Plai Mat the winner.[5] Akkabut relinquished the license to Supachai Chunhacha (ศุภชัย ชุนหชา) the following year.[9]
The pageant was sometimes co-organized with other provincial pageants; with Miss Grand Surin–Yasothon–Amnat Charoen in 2020,[3] and with Miss Grand Nakhon Ratchasima in 2023.[10][11]
The pageant was skipped once; in 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand, the national organizer was unable to organize the national event, and the country representative for the international tournament was appointed instead.[12]
