Miss Grand Belgium is an annual Belgian female beauty pageant based in Lint, Belgium.[1][2][3] It was founded in 2021 by the event organizer, CC Productions, which is managed by Nepali businessperson Carolyn Collinda.[1][4] The contest winners represent Belgium at its parent international platform, Miss Grand International.[1][2][5]
Previously, Belgium representatives at the Miss Grand International pageant were appointed by different licensees, but none of them placed at the aforementioned international pageant.
History
Belgium is one of the countries that has participated in the Miss Grand International contest since its inception in 2013. Nevertheless, most of its representatives have been chosen without organizing a national contest. However, after Carolyn Collinda, the Netherlands-born businessperson, obtained the license in 2021, she subsequently organized the first Miss Grand Belgium contest on September 18, 2021, at AED Studios in the city of Lint.[1][2] The contest featured eight national finalists, and Tenzin Zomkey, who was born in India's Tibetan refugee camp and is currently residing in Flemish Brabant, was crowned Miss Grand Belgium 2021.[2][3][6]
In 2022, the original winner, Alyssa Gilliaert, resigned from the title due to health problems, which caused the organizer to appoint one of the national finalists, Chiara Vanderveeren, to compete at the Miss Grand International 2022 in Indonesia instead.[7]
