Miss Grand Nakhon Phanom (Thai: มิสแกรนด์นครพนม) is a Thai provincial beauty pageant which selects a representative from Nakhon Phanom province to the Miss Grand Thailand national competition.[1][2][3][4] It was founded in 2016 by an event organizer company Double B Management, chaired by Preemart Hemathulin (ปรีมาศ เหมะธุลิน).[5]
Nakhon Phanom produced one Miss Grand Thailand, Arayha Suparurk, who won the contest in 2019.[6] Another highlight achievement was the fifth runner-up, won in 2023 by Kamonwalai Prajakrattanakul,[7][8] who was later sent to participate in a Chinese/Thai reality competition show, Chuang Asia: Thailand, and was elected as one of the final 9 members debuting as Gen1es.[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 Nakhon Phanom province was granted to an event organizer led by Preemart Hemathulin,[5] who was also the licensee for other 4 Isan contests, including Yasothon, Amnat Charoen, Surin, and Maha Sarakham.[9] The first Miss Grand Nakhon Phanom was co-organized with the four mentioned contests on May 24, 2016, in Mueang Maha Sarakham,[9] where an entrepreneur Lalittaphat Janchot was named Miss Grand Nakhon Phanom.[10]
In addition to the 2016 contest, the pageant was organized outside Nakhon Phanom province twice: the 2022 edition in Bangkok[11] and the 2025 one in Nonthaburi.[12]
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.[13]
