Miss Grand Veneto is an Italian regional female beauty pageant, founded in 2019 by an Padua-based event organizer, Pubblistar 2000, led by Enzo Lamberto. The winners of the contest represent the region of Veneto in the Miss Grand Italy national pageant.
Since the inception of the Miss Grand Italy pageant, Veneto candidates have never won the title yet; however, the placements they obtained in the national contest remain unclarified due to a lack of national competition results publicized by both regional and national organizers.
History After Miss Grand Italy's director, Giuseppe Puzio, began franchising the regional competitions to local organizers in 2019, the license for the Veneto region was granted to a local organizer, Enzo Lamberto, who then organized the region-level pageants in Padua and Treviso to select the region representatives for that year's national competition.
In 2022, after two consecutive years of absence, Veneto returned to the competition with the leadership of Giulio Romi, chairperson of the Fashion Lady Eventi. However, Giulio lost the license to Domenico Poggiana the following year.
Several local auditions and contests were organized annually to determine the finalists for the Miss Grand Veneto pageant
