New Zealand national pageant

In 2003, Miss World New Zealand Ltd [1] chose to boycott the Miss World pageant due the events surrounding Miss World 2002, held in Nigeria. From 2003 to 2007, the winner of Miss World New Zealand competed at Miss Earth.[2] The New Zealand Asia Pacific Trust gained the rights to Miss World New Zealand in 2007, and gained the rights to Miss Earth New Zealand in 2011.[3] The title was awarded to the second runner up in the Miss New Zealand Festival of Beauty in 2011 and 2012, with the winner being awarded the title of Miss World New Zealand and the first runner up receiving the title of Miss New Zealand International. In 2013 Miss Earth New Zealand was again held as a separate pageant.

Titleholders

The winner of Miss Earth New Zealand represents her country at Miss Earth. On occasion, when the winner does not qualify (due to age) for either contest, a runner-up is sent.
