Miss Grand Phichit (Thai: มิสแกรนด์พิจิตร) is a Thai provincial beauty pageant which selects a representative from Phichit province to the Miss Grand Thailand national competition.[1][2][3][4] It was founded in 2016 by a lance corporal, Krit Pondetwisai (กริช พลเดชวิสัย), as an inter-provincial pageant with other four provincial stages in the lower northern region.[5]

Phichit representatives have yet to win the Miss Grand Thailand title. The highest and only placement they obtained was in the fifth runners-up team (Top 10), achieved by Piyarada Wayuweach in 2024.[6]

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.[7] The license for Phichit province was granted to a local policeman, Krit Pondetwisai,[5] who was also the licensee for other 4 lower northern stages, including Phitsanulok, Uttaradit, Phetchabun, and Kamphaeng Phet.[5] Pondetwisai co-organized the first Miss Grand Phichit with the mentioned 4 provicianl stages in Mueang Phitsanulok on April 17, 2016, and named Aiyakan Chaiyakham (อัยการ ไชยาคำ) the Phichit's winner.[8] The license was then transferred to another organizer team led by Thanakrit Saenwutthithanakul (ธนกฤต แสนวุฒิธนกุล) the following year.[9]

The pageant was usually co-organized with other Miss Grand Thailand provincial stages; it was a stand-alone contest only for the 2017,[10] 2018,[11] 2019,[12] and 2023 editions.[13]

The pageant was skipped in 2022; due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand, the national organizer was unable to organize the national event in 2021,[14] the 2021 Miss Grand Kanchanaburi winner was sent to compete in the 2022 national stage instead.[15]
