Miss Grand Australia 2023 was the seventh edition of the Miss Grand Australia pageant, held on July 15, 2023,[1][2][3] at the RACV City Club located in the capital of Victoria state, Greater Melbourne.[3][4] Thirty candidates, who have qualified for the national pageant through an online profile screening performed from February to March, competed for the title, and a 28-year-old ADHDer and disability support worker from Victoria, Mikaela-Rose Fowler, was announced the winner.[1][2][5] Her court consisted of four runners-up including Paitin Louise Powell 1st runner-up, Brooke Murray 2nd runner-up, Selina McCloskey 3rd runner-up, and Alecia McCallum 4th runner-up. Fowler will later represent the country at the parent international stage, Miss Grand International 2023, to be held in Vietnam on October 25.[6][7]
In cooperation with Destiny Rescue, the pageant also ran as a charity event on June 4 at the Tide On The Jetty Manly in the city of Brisbane to raise funds available for rescuing children from sexual exploitation and human trafficking.[4][8][9]
This edition was the first Miss Grand Australia contest managed by Amber Sidney after she took over the license from a former licensee, Dani Fitch,[10][11] who served as the national director of the contest from 2017 to 2022.[10][12]
