Background

edit

Previously, Peruvian representatives for the Miss Grand International pageant from 2014 to 2022 were either appointed or selected through the Miss Peru contest.[5] However, after the revealing of the finalists for the Miss Peru 2023 pageant, which consisted of 28 candidates, the pageant director, who also holds the license of Miss Grand Peru since 2014, Jessica Newton, planned to arrange a separate pageant to determine the country representative for the Miss Grand International 2023,[9][10][11] and all 28 qualified candidates were permitted to compete for only one of which;[1][12] 12 candidates chose the Miss Grand pageant.[1][2]
