Miss Grand Lazio is an Italian regional female beauty pageant,[1][2][3] founded in 2019 by a Colleferro-based event organizer, Romano Storace.[4][5] The winners of the contest the Miss Grand Italy national pageant.[3][6][7]

Since the inception of the Miss Grand Italy pageant, Lazio candidates won the contest once in 2021 by Marika Nardozi,[7] followed by the 2nd runner-up, won in 2022 by Sofia Moscatelli.[8] Other placements they reached remain unclarified due to a lack of national competition results publicized by both regional and national organizers.

After Miss Grand Italy's director, Giuseppe Puzio, began franchising the regional competitions to local organizers in 2019, the license for the Lazio region was granted to a local organizer, Romano Storace,[4][5] who is also the chairperson of an Colleferro-based modeling agency named RS Model Junior.[3][4] Romano organized the first edition of Miss Grand Lazio on 31 August 2019, at the Piazza Marcantonio Colonna in Paliano.[5] In 2022, the pageant was held parallelly with the Miss Grand Liguria pageant due to a lack of Ligurian region coordinator.[9][10] The contract between Romano Storace and Miss Grand Italy organizer was terminated in 2024 when the regional license was taken over by Alessandra Fattoruso.[6]

Several local auditions and pageants were organized annually regionwide to elect the final candidates for the Miss Grand Lazio pageant, such as in Montelanico[11] and Colleferro.[12]
