Since first participating in the Miss Grand Spain pageant, Galicia's representatives have not won the main title yet. The highest placement they obtained was the fourth runner-up, won by Iris Miguélez who competed as Miss Grand Costa Gallega in the 2019 national contest.[7]

History

Galicia debuted in the Miss Grand Spain pageant in 2022 after the license was granted to an event organizer, WomanPrivee, led by Sylvie Rodríguez,[3][4] who organized the first contest of Miss Grand Galicia on June 17, 2017, at the Dux Sanxenxo, Sanxenxo,[8][9] in which Carla Soage was named the winner, outclassing the other 39 finalists. However, Carla was unplaced in the national contest held on July 8 of that year in Mairena del Alcor.[10]

In 2023, Jacobo Vázquez Alemparte was in charge of the pageant director.[11]
