Miss Grand Phuket

Miss Grand Phuket (Thai: มิสแกรนด์ภูเก็ต) is a Thai provincial beauty pageant that selects a representative from Phuket province to compete in Miss Grand Thailand. It has been held annually since 2016, with entrepreneur Teerasak Phonngarm (ธีรศักดิ์ ผลงาม) serving as the provincial director.

History

The pageant was established on April 21, 2016, when Miss Grand Thailand began franchising provincial competitions to individual organizers. The license for Phuket province was acquired by Teerasak Phonngarm, who organized the first Miss Grand Phuket on April 21, 2016. The inaugural winner was Thai-Canadian model Amanda Obdam.

No pageant was held in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand.
