The Essence of MISS OECS
Celebrating Elegance, Unity, and Empowerment Across the OECS
Conceptualized in 1984, the MISS OECS Pageant is a prestigious regional event that celebrates the grace, talent, and cultural heritage of young women across the Eastern Caribbean. After a twenty-year hiatus, Dominica revitalised this cherished tradition in 2019, reviving its mission to promote transnational integration, regional unity, and Caribbean womanhood.
This year, under the theme ‘Elysian Elegance and Empowerment,’ the pageant continues to highlight its contestants' intelligence, poise, and charm. It also provides a platform for them to advocate for critical social issues and positively impact their communities. Through the bonds of friendship and cooperation it fosters, the MISS OECS Pageant remains a beacon of empowerment and cultural pride in the region.
