About Miss Florida USA & Miss Florida Teen USA

Miss Florida is a beauty competition that selects a winner who will represent the state of Florida in the Miss USA pageant. The winner of the annual beauty competition represents the state and serves as an ambassador during her reign.

The Miss Florida USA pageant is part of the Miss Universe organization. The program is designed to assist the participants in advancing their career and achieve their personal goals. Until 2017, the Miss and Teen pageants were held separately and on different dates.

Recently, the organization made a decision that both pageants compete at the same time. Florida has had several finalists and runner-ups throughout the years but has yet to win the Miss USA title.

Miss Florida Teen USA



The Miss Florida Teen USA winner competes in the Miss Teen USA pageant, representing the state of Florida. The contestants must be at least 14 and under 19 years old.

What Are the Eligibility Requirements for Participating in the Miss Florida Pageant?



To participate in Miss Florida, you have to be a citizen of the United States or a resident of the state of Florida for at least 3 months before the competition weekend. You also need to be at least 18 years old and under 28 years old.

You must be without children and unmarried to meet the eligibility criteria. There are no height, weight, or measurement requirements for competing in the pageant. However, the judges look for body proportion, physical health, and a good personality.

What Are the Judging Criteria for Miss Florida?



Throughout the duration of the pageant, the participants go through several stages of the competition: an interview section, a swimsuit competition, and an evening gown competition.

The first stage is the interview, during which you have a private interview with the selection committee. You will be asked questions about your education, family, goals, community involvement, and other topics.

The judges then evaluate your public speaking skills, personality, and overall presence. The second portion of the competition is athletic wear/swimsuits, meaning you will be judged based on physical fitness, beauty, and poise.

The final segment focuses on your overall appearance, including a sense of style, confidence, stage presence, and elegance.

What Does the Winner of Miss Florida USA Do?



The Miss Florida USA titleholder has certain responsibilities after winning the beauty pageant. This includes appearances such as charity events, galas, modeling, public speaking engagements, and others. The winner also represents her state in the national Miss USA pageant.

What Does the Winner of Miss Florida USA Get?



The winner of Miss Florida USA earns the official crown and sash, an evening gown for the Miss USA evening gown competition, and a LEAP conference scholarship.

Among the prizes the titleholder gets are also cosmetic lessons, a beauty gift basket, a dental and fitness package, a skincare collection, and more.

Miss Florida USA 2023



The finale of the Miss Florida 2023 beauty pageant was held on the 14th of May, at the Coral Springs Center for the Arts, a theater and an art museum located in Florida. Caroline Dixon won the crown and became the official representative of Florida at Miss USA 2023.
