Since the first competition in the Miss Grand Spain pageant, the highest placement obtained by Murcia representatives was the first runner-up, won by Patricia López in 2018;[6] however, Patricia was later promoted to the title of Miss Grand Spain 2018 after the original winner resigned.[7]

History

edit

After Vicente Gonzalez acquired the license for Miss Grand Spain in 2015, he began franchising the provincial competitions to individual organizers, who would name the provincial representatives to compete in the national pageant the following year. In the region of Murcia, the first Miss Grand Ciudad Real competition was held at the Casa Cultura Mazarrón in Mazarrón on 27 May 2018,[1][2] with 11 contestants from different municipalities participating. Of whom, an 18-year-old student of English Philology at the University of Murcia, Patricia López, was named the first Miss Grand Murcia.[1]
