The Miss OECS Pageant Committee, in partnership with the OECS Commission, is pleased to announce the 2026 edition of the prestigious MISS OECS Pageant. The event is set to take place on Friday, January 30th, 2026, at the Windsor Park Stadium in Roseau, Dominica.

Staged under the theme “Crowning Radiance, Embracing Unity,” this year’s pageant highlights the collective brilliance and leadership of young women across the Eastern Caribbean.

The OECS Commission continues its official endorsement of the pageant, recognizing it as a vital platform for youth empowerment and regional integration. 

“We are proud to partner with the Miss OECS Pageant Committee once again. This collaboration allows us to celebrate the unique identities of our Member States while fostering a spirit of togetherness among our future leaders.”, said Dr Didacus Jules, the Director General of the OECS.

The 2026 competition will feature elite delegates from Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, British Virgin Islands, Dominica, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and Martinique. These ambassadors will compete in several judged segments, including:

  • Creative National Wear

Reigning Queen Kyanna Dyer of Dominica will take her final walk and crown her successor, who will then serve as a regional advocate for youth empowerment and cultural development throughout her one-year reign.
