Miss Lebanon (Arabic: انتخابات ملكة جمال لبنان) is the national beauty pageant in Lebanon.
Miss Lebanon has been broadcast on Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation (LBC) since 1995. It is currently organised by the Lebanese Ministry of Tourism. The pageant has been cancelled a few times due to civil wars, conflicts with Israel and lack of protection for the delegates. The official winner represents Lebanon at the Miss World and Miss Universe pageants. Miss Lebanon Organization awards its winner prizes totalling over $400.000.
Every year, the Miss Lebanon pageant takes on a new format with a new number of contestants. The pageant has taken the form of a one night gala, several primes, and even reality television. Below is an outline of the recent years of the pageant's format:
