About Miss British Columbia 2026
Miss British Columbia is a provincial pageant for women from Canada's Pacific province, home to Vancouver, Victoria, and some of North America's most spectacular natural scenery. BC contestants bring a natural affinity for environmental advocacy given the province's mountains, forests, and coastline. Vancouver's international outlook, film and tech industry, and large Asian-Canadian population give BC contestants a cosmopolitan, globally minded character that performs well on national and international stages.
