MANILA, Philippines — Miss Grand International (MGI) is launching its first-ever Miss Grand International All Stars, a new pageant open to women and transwomen aged 20 to 40 regardless of marital status.

The Thailand-based organization announced the development on Sunday, December 7 through its official social media platforms.

The competition is open to contestants who have previously “stood on an international stage but have yet to win a crown," MGI said in the announcement.

The All Stars pageant will begin on Jan. 25, 2026, with the coronation night scheduled for Feb. 13, 2026.

The inaugural winner is set to receive a cash prize ranging from $100,000 to $1,000,000 (approximately P5.9 million to P58.9 million) in addition to the All Stars title.

PH’s CJ Opiaza welcomes the move. CJ Opiaza, the Philippines’ first Miss Grand International titleholder crowned in 2024, described the introduction of the All Stars format as "making waves in pageantry."
