    Miss Grand Norway is a national beauty pageant title awarded to Norwegian representatives competing at the Miss Grand International pageant.[1][2][3] The title was first introduced in 2013 when a 21-year-old model from Flekkefjord, Christine Frestad, was appointed as Miss Grand Norway,[1] after obtaining the 3rd runner-up position in the Miss Norway 2013 pageant.[4]

    From 2013 to 2016, the license of Miss Grand Norway belonged to a national pageant, Miss Norway.[1][2][3] However, after an absence in 2017, the license was then obtained by a sub-continental pageant headquartered in Stockholm, Miss Queen of Scandinavia, where the Miss Grand Norway title was considered one of the supplement awards in the event.[citation needed]

    History

    [edit]

    Norway made its first appearance at the Miss Grand International stage in 2013 after Christine Frestad was assigned by the Miss Norway organization to compete in the inaugural edition of the mentioned tournament in Thailand;[1] Frestad was the third runner-up in Miss Norway 2013 pageant.[4] From 2013 to 2016, under the management of Miss Norway, the Norwegian candidates for Miss Grand International were selected through the Miss Norway pageant in that particular year.[1][2][3] Miss Norway terminated its partnership with Miss Grand International in 2017.

    One year after the franchise relinquishment, Miss Queen of Scandinavia, a Sweden-based sub-continental pageant chaired by Peter Hadward,[5] obtained the license, and Norwegian representative for that year Miss Grand International was determined through the mentioned pageant.[citation needed]

    Since the first competition in 2013, Norwegian representatives have never been placed in Miss Grand International.[6][7][8][9][10]
