Miss Grand Nakhon Ratchasima or Miss Grand Korat[1] (Thai: มิสแกรนด์นครราชสีมา or มิสแกรนด์โคราช) is a Thai provincial beauty pageant which selects a representative from Nakhon Ratchasima province to the Miss Grand Thailand national competition.[2][3][4][5] It was founded in 2016[1][6] by a local organizer Cheewanat Suphattarobon (ชีวณัฏฐ์ สุภัทโรบล).[6]
Nakhon Ratchasima representatives have yet to win the Miss Grand Thailand title. The highest placement they obtained was in the fifth runners-up team (Top 10), won by Rina Chat-amornchai in 2023.[7]
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 Ratchasima province was granted to a local organizer, Cheewanat Suphattarobon,[6] who organized the first Miss Grand Nakhon Ratchasima pageant in Mueang Nakhon Ratchasima on May 8, 2016, and named Charinee Khudpho the winner.[6] Suphattarobon relinquished the license to Kritsana Khwangram (กฤษณา ขวางรัมย์) in 2018.[8]
The 2023 edition was the only Miss Grand Nakhon Ratchasima contest co-organizing with another provincial stage, Miss Grand Buriram.[9][10]
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.[11]
