Background

Location On September 15, 2025, it was announced that the competition would be taking place at Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, Nevada. This will be the fourth time that the pageant is held in Reno following Miss USA 2019, 2022 and 2023, and the third time in four years holding the pageant in the city, resumed its three-year deal had originally secured in 2022 under the ownership of then-national director and Miss USA 2008 Crystle Stewart.

Selection of contestants Selection of delegates at state pageants began in January 2025 and concluded in September 2025. The first state pageant was Connecticut, held on January 26, 2025, and the last state pageants were Alabama and Louisiana, originally scheduled for September 21, 2025 but was moved up early one day to avoid the deadline for the open call to the eight unrepresented states the same day.

Appointed delegates Several states in the Miss Teen USA 2025 competition could not hold traditional state pageants and instead appointed titleholders via an open casting call conducted by the national organization. These appointees had not won state competitions but were selected to ensure full national representation following leadership and licensing changes within the Miss USA Organization.Parent, Tabitha (September 16, 2025).
