Miss Guatemala is a national beauty pageant in Guatemala.
Miss Guatemala was founded in 1955 and sent its first winner to represent Guatemala at the 1955 Miss Universe Pageant.
The following women have represented Guatemala in the Big Four international beauty pageants, the four major international beauty pageants for women. These are Miss World, Miss Universe, Miss International and Miss Earth.
In the past, the winner of the Miss Guatemala pageant was either appointed to represent the nation at Miss Universe or Miss International. However, today the winner automatically earns the right to represent Guatemala at Miss Universe.
In 2001 Miss Tierra Guatemala held the official contest for first time to choose Guatemalan representatives for the Miss Earth pageant. Traditionally, Miss Tierra Guatemala is crowned in a separate pageant. Before the creation of Miss Tierra Guatemala, the official candidates were selected from a roster of experienced candidates who competed at the Miss Guatemala pageant in the past.
