Miss Grand Philippines licensee timeline
Miss Grand Philippines is a female national beauty pageant in the Philippines, launched in 2014 by John Dela Vega,[1][2] who was also the founder of the "Hause of JDV", one of the country's most recognized pageant training camps.[3] The winner of the contest represents the country at its parent international platform, Miss Grand International.[1][2] In cooperation with the Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI), some national finalists of the Binibining Pilipinas pageant were assigned to participate in the Miss Grand International pageant in 2013 and 2015.[4][5][6]
In 2016, the competition license was transferred to BPCI.[7] Under the supervision of BPCI, from 2016 to 2022, majority of Filipino representatives at the Miss Grand International pageant were directly determined through the Binibining Pilipinas contest,[7] except for the 2020 season, wherein the runner-up of the previous edition was appointed to participate.[8] The Miss Grand Philippines pageant, on the other hand, returned as a separate platform in 2023 when the franchise was passed to the ALV Pageant Circle under the leadership of talent manager and businessman Mr. Arnold L. Vegafria.[9][10][11]
Since the inception of the Miss Grand International pageant in 2013, the Philippines has yet to win the contest, but hold a record of six placements; the highest position is the first runner-up, obtained by Nicole Cordoves in 2016 and Samantha Bernardo in 2020.[12][13]
