Miss World 1971 was the 21st Miss World pageant, held at the Royal Albert Hall in London, England, United Kingdom, on 10 November 1971.[2]
Jennifer Hosten of Grenada crowned Lúcia Petterle of Brazil at the end of the event.[3] Although Petterle completed her reign as Miss World, she fell and broke her arm in the final month of her year and was unable to travel to London to participate in the Miss World 1972 contest.
This edition marked the debut of Bermuda and Guam, and the return of Aruba and Trinidad and Tobago, which last competed in 1966, Panama last competed in 1967 and Paraguay last competed in 1969.
Colombia, Denmark, the Gambia, Grenada, Hong Kong, Lebanon, Liberia and Nigeria, withdrew from the competition for unknown reasons.
