Miss Nepal
Miss Nepal (Nepali: मिस नेपाल) is a national beauty pageant in Nepal. The winners represent Nepal at Miss World, Miss Cosmo, Miss International beauty pageants. It is organized by The Hidden Treasure (THT) Pvt. Ltd, so the pageant is also known as THT Miss Nepal.
From the first pageant in 1994, the winner of the Miss Nepal has represented Nepal at Miss Asia Pacific. After 1997, the Hidden Treasures collaborated with Kathmandu Jaycees and formed two pageants of Kathmandu Jacyees Miss Nepal and Hidden Treasures Miss World Nepal. From 1998 onwards, the winner of Miss Nepal has been sent to Miss World contest and the first runner-up to Miss Asia Pacific. No contest was held in 2001 due to the Nepalese royal massacre.[citation needed]
From 2004, the second runner-up represented Nepal at Miss Earth. This changed in 2005, to first runner-up, as they stopped sending delegates to Miss Asia Pacific. From 2010, the second runner-up was sent to Miss International. For 2016-2017, The Hidden Treasure reacquired the franchise of Miss Asia Pacific International. In 2017, Hidden Treasure acquired Miss Universe franchise and elected Nagma Shrestha as the First Miss Universe Nepal 2017 and in 2018 it acquired Miss Supranational franchise. From 2018 onwards, all the national titleholders became equivalent to winners with no runners up.
In 2020, Hidden Treasure announced that they no longer had the Miss Universe franchise. The organizer announced on 20 March 2020, that the contest had been postponed due to the (COVID-19) pandemic, as informed by Chairman of Hidden Treasure Mr. Driwakar Rajkarnikar. Later the pageant was conducted on 5 December 2020.
In 2022, Miss Nepal lost the franchise of Miss Supranational. Now, Mister and Miss National Nepal (Santosh Upadhyaya Directorship) sends Nepalese delegates to Supranational pageant. In 2025, THT acquired the license for Miss Cosmo Nepal (previously held by Miss Vibhaa). In 2026, THT discontinued Miss Earth frachise.
Since 1994, women from 19–24 years old compete at the national pageant, Miss Nepal. The auditions are held throughout the country in provincial levels or city levels. 25 contestants are chosen from across the country and they begin a one-month training and grooming course before the final event in which they participate in lectures, social work, photoshoots, interviews and etiquette lessons. Along with 25 selected contestants, one preliminary pageant winner is directly advanced to training phase, making the total contestants number 26.
On the coronation night, which lasts up to three hours, all the candidates engage in an opening sequence, introduction speech (after which the top 12 semi-finalists are chosen who then compete in an interview portion with the judges), and an evening gown sequence, where the 5 finalists are chosen. This is when the final common question and answer round is held. At the end, the names of winners are announced from the grand final show, live telecasted on the selected broadcast partner.
