Miss Grand International 2017 was the fifth Miss Grand International pageant, held at the Vinpearl Phu Quoc Resort and Villas Convention Hall in Phú Quốc, Vietnam, on October 25, 2017.[1][2][3][4][5]

Ariska Putri Pertiwi of Indonesia crowned María José Lora of Peru as her successor at the end of the event.[6][7][5][8][9][3]

Background

Date and venue

On the grand final coronation night of the Miss Grand International 2016, held in Las Vegas, Nevada, on October 25, in addition to crowning the winner, the host of the event also announced that Vietnam had been selected as the venue to host next year's competition,[10][11][12] making it the second time that Vietnam had been chosen to host the pageant since hosting the Miss Universe pageant in 2008.[1][12] However, further schedule details have not been revealed at that moment.[11][12]

Later, on October 26, 2016, Nguyen Dang Chuong, Director General of the Department of Performing Arts, stated that the pageant activities is scheduled for the provinces of Quảng Bình, Thừa Thiên Huế and Kiên Giang from October 5–25,[1][13] with grand final on October 25, in Phú Quốc Islands, Kiên Giang.[1] The other two sub-contests, Swimsuit competition and the preliminary round, was also set for Phú Quốc on October 17 and 23, while another sub-event, the national costume competition, was scheduled to take place in Qhang Binh on October 12.[2]

The press conference was officially arranged later in April 2017 at the Pan Pacific Hanoi Hotel in Hanoi, where the additional pageant schedule was revealed. In addition to the president of Miss Grand International, Nawat Itsaragrisil, the event also featured the presence of Tran Minh Tien, chairman and CEO of Lasta Multimedia and Let's Viet TV channel, who was the contest's chief organizer, as well as Ariska Putri [id], Miss Grand International 2016, and all four runners-up.[14]

Selection of participants

Contestants from 77 countries and territories have been selected to compete in the competition.[4][5] Twenty-five of these delegates were determined through the national pageant, thirteen were appointed to their positions after being runner-ups in their national pageant, and the remaining thirty-nine delegates were appointed to the title without participating in any national pageants, such as the representative of Hong Kong.[15]

The original representatives of Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Hungary, Myanmar, and Venezuela resigned or were dethroned for different reasons, and were replaced by the newly elected representatives. Meanwhile, the representatives of Albania,[16] Iran,[17] Ireland,[18] Kosovo,[16] Namibia,[19] Singapore,[20] and Trinidad and Tobago,[21] did not enter the international tournament for unknown reasons.
