The contest was won by Sarunrat Puagpipat of Phuket,[5] making her the third representative from her province to win the title, securing the first back-to-back victory for Phuket. Puagpipat was crowned by preceding Miss Grand Thailand 2024 Malin Chara-anan. She represented Thailand at the Miss Grand International 2025 pageant in Bangkok, where she finished as 1st runner-up. [6]

The event was live-transmitted to audiences worldwide via the pageant's YouTube channel, GrandTV,[7] with a Thai-Australian television personality Matthew Deane as the host.[8] In the event, Pattaya was announced as the preliminary host city for the competition the following year.[9]

Background

Selection of host province

At the grand coronation night of Miss Grand Thailand 2024 held on 6 March 2024, in addition to crowning the winner, the host of the event also announced Songkhla province as the host for the Miss Grand Thailand 2025 pageant BootCamp with a local entrepreneur and 2025 Miss Grand Songkhla director, Araya To-Kasub (อารยา โต๊ะกะสุบ), as the coordinator.[10][11]

Initially, Songkhla province was selected as the preliminary host province for the 2024 national pageant, but due to the opposing political views between the organizer, which supports the center-left parties in the 2023 Thai general election, and the local governments, which support right-wing politics, as well as the conflict between the national director, Nawat Itsaragrisil, and a former Miss Grand Songkhla provincial director, Chanpen Parisuttho-Namchanda, who disagreed with expressing political opinions on the beauty pageant stage, the plan was canceled, and Phuket province was elected as the replacement.[12]

Location and date

According to the press conference held on 3 September 2024, the pageant activities were scheduled for 23 February to March 29, 2025.[2] Its main events are listed as follows.[13]

  • 25 March: Grand Voice contest

Selection of contestants

As with all prior editions, the appointment of provincial representatives was prohibited. All competitors were selected through 57 regional pageants conducted across 36 provinces to identify the 77 provincial titleholders. However, since there was no restrictive rule that the provincial contests had to be held in that respective province; hence, 30 provincial representatives (approx. 40% of the total) were awarded titles at the event held in the Bangkok Metropolitan. In certain instances, multiple provincial titles are conferred in a single competition.[14]

Miss Darling of Songkhla or Miss Darling of the host city (Thai: มิสแกรนด์ขวัญใจสงขลา) is the finale contest in the host city of Songkhla. The contest was set for the Signature Hotel Airport, Hat Yai, on 17 March 2025.[109]

The format of the competition is similar to the Miss Grand Thailand national Final, i.e., contestants introduce themselves in local costumes and then parade in evening gowns. Out of 77 contestants, only 22 made it to the next round, which was then narrowed down to 12 who moved on to the first Q&A round. The top 6 were then announced based on their answers, and a second Q&A round was used to determine the competition winner.[68] The final question concerns the recent construction accident on Rama II Road, which has resulted in numerous deaths and injuries.[110][111]

"For traveling by car from Bangkok to Songkhla Province, you have to go through Rama II Road, which is considered to have been under construction for more than 55 years, longer than the construction of the Egyptian pyramids. This has caused both loss of life and economic routes. What would you like to tell this government to solve this problem immediately?'

The winner, Suphannika Nopparat of Chumphon, replies:[110]

"Of course, the loss in this catastrophe exceeds the collapse of the bridge. The human life cannot be restored. One thing I'd like to ask and tell this government is why they don't recognize the value of human life, the common people. Everyone pays the taxes, thus they should have the same standard of life. As previously stated, the construction structure may not necessarily be the result of engineering faults. Everyone! It stems from deep-seated corruption from the start. If we are unable to resolve the issue at its source at this time. So, let's try to solve the challenge in the conclusion. If the construction is strictly inspected, there is no neglect, and the budget is used for other purposes, we will most likely have a solid bridge that will keep people safe. Thank you."

The event was hosted by the pageant personnel, Sakul Limpapanon, and the 1st runner-up Miss Grand Thailand 2024, Kanyaphatsaphon Rungrueang.[68][111]

Since obtaining their provincial crowns, each candidate has been evaluated and scored. This score, together with the points earned throughout the national pageant camp, will decide the top 20 finalists who will be revealed in the grand final round, to be held on 29 March 2025, at the MGI Hall, Bravo BKK Mall in Bangkok.[13][119]

As done in the previous edition, the top 20 finalists, 5 from each of the 4 regional groups, competed in the swimsuit section. Afterward, two candidates from each group, including the Miss Popular Vote winner determined through public voting, the Best Seller Award winner, and the Boss Choice fast-track winner directly selected by the pageant's president, completed the top 11 finalists who then enter the evening gown and speech competitions.[5]

After the evening gown and speech sessions, regional group winners, together with the Boss Choice winner, were elected as the top 5 to compete in the question-and-answer portion, where the pageant's winner and all four runners-up were decided.[5]

The summary of the selection process is presented below.
