Miss Grand Guyana is a national beauty pageant title awarded to delegates designated to represent Guyana at the Miss Grand International competition.[1][2] As of 2025, Guyana has not achieved a placement or won any titles at Miss Grand International.[a]
History
Guyana first participated in Miss Grand International in 2015, when Soyini Fraser, a professional dancer and the first runner-up of Miss Guyana World 2011 was appointed as the country’s representative at the third edition of the international pageant held in Thailand.[1] The delegate did not achieve a placement.[3]
Between 2016 and 2024, Guyana did not send representatives to the competition. The country returned in 2025, when Lieve Blanckaert, a Guyanese American who had previously placed in the top twenty at Miss Grand United States 2025,[4] obtained the national license and assumed the position of Guyana’s representative at Miss Grand International 2025. It was the only pageant she won, because it was self purchased. She previously lost both the Miss World Guyana and Miss Universe pageants.[2][5]
