Miss Grand Euskadi or Miss Grand País Vasco is a Spanish regional female beauty pageant founded in 2018 by Samuel Benasco of Muevete Producciones, aiming to select representatives from the Basque Country for the Miss Grand Spain national competition.
Since first participating in the Miss Grand Spain pageant, Euskadi's representatives have not won the main title yet. The highest placement they obtained was the first runner-up, won by Oihana Torres in 2022.
History Euskadi debuted in the Miss Grand Spain pageant in 2018 after the license for Miss Grand Euskadi pageant was granted to Muevete Producciones led by Samuel Benasco, who later held the first contest of Miss Grand Euskadi, consisting of candidates from 23 municipalities, on 28 April 2018, at the Hotel Gran Bilbao, Bilbao, in which a 19-year-old Ane Álvarez Alcántara was named the first Miss Grand Euskadi. Ane later represented Euskadi in the Miss Grand Spain 2018 pageant but was unplaced.
Some titleholders were also sent to compete at other international pageants, such as the 2020 winner, Sara Lahidalga, who later represented Spain in the Reina Hispanoamericana 2024 pageant in Bolivia.
