Miss Grand Portugal is the national beauty pageant title awarded to Portuguese representatives who are selected to participate in the Miss Grand International competition.[1][2][3][4] The title was first established in 2013, marking the beginning of Portugal’s involvement in the Miss Grand contest.[5]

From 2013 to 2024, the franchise license was held by the Miss República Portuguesa organization, directed by Isidro de Brito.[1][2] In 2025, the license was transferred to another national pageant institution, the Concurso Nacional de Beleza Portugal (CNB Portugal).

Since its debut in 2013, Portugal has not won the Miss Grand International title. The country’s highest placement was achieved in 2016, when Ana Bomfim advanced to the Top 20 finalists.

History

As of 2025, no independent pageant has been established in Portugal for the exclusive purpose of selecting representatives to compete in Miss Grand International. Between 2013 and 2024, when the franchise license was administered by the Miss República Portuguesa organization, the majority of Portuguese delegates to Miss Grand International were appointed.[1][2] An exception occurred in 2017,[1] 2019,[6] and 2021,[4] when the title of Miss Grand Portugal was conferred through the Miss República Portuguesa competition as one of its subsidiary crowns.

Following the failure to designate representatives in both 2023 and 2024,[7] the collaboration between Miss República Portuguesa and the Miss Grand International organization was terminated. In 2025, the franchise rights were subsequently reassigned to the Concurso Nacional de Beleza Portugal (CNB Portugal), a pageant institution responsible for organizing several Portuguese beauty contests, including Miss Queen Portugal (since 2011) and Miss Portugal (from 2022 onwards).
