The Pageant Awards, who are we?

The organization of the trophies is entrusted to the PAGEANT FACTORY, in collaboration with the EUROPEAN FEDERATION OF PAGEANTRY (association) in order to guarantee great transparency in the choice of winners.

The Pageant Awards, what for?

Originally, we created the European Federation of Pageantry to develop an ethical pageantry in Europe. No award ceremony was aimed at all players in this sector and met the conditions of fairness, ethics and total independence. We offered an alternative. The Golden Crown Pageant Awards were born from this observation.

Who are the Pageant Awards for?

Around thirty categories will reward the entire range of our professions involved in beauty contests in a fairly broad manner. Above all, it is a fantastic way to highlight their work, their dedication, their involvement, and the work of all organizations. Cinema has its Oscars, music has its Emmys, now pageantry has its Awards. The Pageant Awards are open for all pageant organizations, member or not of the European Federation.

May I know the selection criteria?

With around thirty very different categories, the selection criteria are each time adapted to each category concerned. Remember that the members of the selection committee are above all experts in their field and in beauty pageants. They are able to identify and appreciate quality work due to their functions and their experience. But more generally and without being exhaustive, the criteria appreciated are: ethics, originality, involvement in one's community, relevance of actions, conviviality of means of communication, originality of photoshoots...

How are Pageant Awards nominees selected?

The organization of the Pageants Awards is structured around a selection committee made up of experts and actors from beauty pageants. Each member of this committee can propose applications, but it will also take into account spontaneous applications that all pageantry actors can submit on the site.
