Miss Grand Yangon (Burmese: ငြိမ်းချမ်းရေးအလှမယ် ရန်ကုန်) is a Myanmar's local female beauty pageant in the region of Yangon,[1][2][3] founded in 2024 as a preliminary stage for the Miss Grand Myanmar national pageant.[1][4][5] In addition to determining the four district representatives of the region, some finalists were also assigned to represent other districts outside the Region of Yangon to compete in the national event.[1][4]
Yangon has not yet won the Miss Grand Myanmar contest. The highest placement of Yangon was in the Top 10, achieved by Winn Thawdar Aung of South Yangon in 2024.[6] Miss Grand Yangon have been discontinued. Due to problems with the Organization.
The Miss Grand Yangon pageant was organized for the first time in 2024 to select four representatives for the Miss Grand Myanmar 2024 national pageant.[1][2] The organizer then extended the license to 2025,[7] in which its four winners were expected to participate in the 2025 national contest, but due to the national franchise change, the four Yangon winners were automatically disqualified; they later participated in the Miss World Myanmar 2025 instead.[8]
