Miss Peru

Miss Perú is the national beauty pageant of the republic of Peru. The contest gathers participants from all over the nation, including Peruvian women representing their community overseas. Having been broadcast by all the major television networks in the country during its history, the pageant is currently broadcast by América Televisión. It is preceded by two or three months of preliminary events, with the awarding of corporate prizes by sponsors.

The winner obtains the right to represent Peru at the Miss Universe pageant while the runners-up have the chance to compete internationally at Miss International and Miss Supranational as well as Miss Grand International until 2020 with the creation of the separate Miss Grand Peru contest that is part of the same organization.

This pageant is known for producing Latin America's first ever Miss Universe crown, which was achieved by then 17-year-old Gladys Zender who won the title of Miss Universe 1957.

The owner of the franchise and national director is Miss Peru 1987 and Miss Universe 1987 finalist, Jessica Newton. A separate organization led by Ernesto Paz has the rights of selection for Miss World and Miss Earth.

The current Miss Peru is Tatiana Calmell of Talara, who won the title in Callao on June 9, 2024.
