Miss Scandinavia is a beauty pageant for Nordic women. The contest was merged with the Miss Baltic Sea pageant for the years 2007 and 2008 and after that the merged pageant was also discontinued.
It was sponsored by MTV3.
After a hiatus between 2009 and 2020, the Miss Scandinavia pageant returned in 2021 with new organizers under the Miss Scandinavia Organization.
