# Miss Grand Australia 2023

Miss Grand Australia 2023 was the seventh edition of the Miss Grand Australia pageant, held on July 15, 2023, at the RACV City Club located in the capital of Victoria state, Greater Melbourne. Thirty candidates, who have qualified for the national pageant through an online profile screening performed from February to March, competed for the title, and a 28-year-old ADHDer and disability support worker from Victoria, Mikaela-Rose Fowler, was announced the winner. Her court consisted of four runners-up including Paitin Louise Powell 1st runner-up, Brooke Murray 2nd runner-up, Selina McCloskey 3rd runner-up, and Alecia McCallum 4th runner-up. Fowler will later represent the country at the parent international stage, Miss Grand International 2023, to be held in Vietnam on October 25.
In cooperation with Destiny Rescue, the pageant also ran as a charity event on June 4 at the Tide On The Jetty Manly in the city of Brisbane to raise funds available for rescuing children from sexual exploitation and human trafficking.
This edition was the first Miss Grand Australia contest managed by Amber Sidney after she took over the license from a former licensee, Dani Fitch, who served as the national director of the contest from 2017 to 2022.
