Miss Austria is a national beauty pageant in Austria.

History

  • Between 1929 and 1931, the Miss Austria was managed by Neues Wiener Tagblatt. The winner went to International Pageant of Pulchritude, the first pageant to crown a Miss Universe. Lisl Goldarbeiter, Miss Austria 1929 of Vienna, won the first International competition.
  • Starting in 1929, Miss Austria franchised the Miss Europe license.
  • After World War II, Illustrierte Kronen Zeitung managed the contest for some time.
  • Starting in 1953, Miss Austria franchised the Miss Universe license.
  • Starting in 1955, Miss Austria franchised the Miss World license.
  • In 1956 Erich Reindl took over the brand of Miss Österreich or Miss Austria.
  • Starting in 1960, Miss Austria franchised the Miss International license.
  • In 1992, Emil Bauer bought the Miss Austria Corporation.
  • Beginning in 2012, Silvia Schachermayer (formerly Silvia Hackl, Miss Austria 2004) handled the Miss Austria Corporation.[1]
  • Starting in 2016, Miss Austria franchised the Miss Earth license.
  • In 2018, Jörg Rigger made his debut as the CEO of Miss Austria Corporation, where later on Kerstin Rigger took over as CEO of Mission Austria.
    • The Miss Austria Organization has returned the Miss World and Miss Universe participation franchises. Therefore, Austria is not allowed to compete on both Miss World and Miss Universe pageants starting in 2018.[2]

Note: In the pageant of Miss Austria, the first and second placed candidates of each federal state take part. So in the final there are 18 delegates from the 9 Bundesländer.

Franchise holders

The Miss Austria winner traditionally goes to Miss Universe and Miss World competitions; sometimes it could be allocated to Miss Europe. A runner-up will take over if the winner does not qualify to represent Austria on the world stage. In Schachermayer directorship between 2015 and 2017, the Miss Austria result divided into Top 3 classification winners. Before announcing the grand winner of Miss Austria, the Top 3 were automatically awarded as Miss Earth Austria, Miss World Austria and lastly, Miss Universe Austria.
