Miss Asia Pageant

The Miss Asia Pageant (simplified Chinese: 亚洲小姐竞选; traditional Chinese: 亞洲小姐競選; pinyin: Yàzhōu Xiǎojie Jìngxuǎn; jyutping: aa³ zau¹ siu² ze² ging³ syun²), is organized by the Asia Television Limited (ATV, a broadcast company in Hong Kong), and they have organized this event since 1985. The contest was stopped from the year of 2000 through 2003, and relaunched in 2004.

Since 2004, it became an event for not just Hong Kong, but also for the rest of Asia as contestants from other parts of Asia participate. Up to 2005, the other Asian contestants have come from these countries or regions: Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland China, Thailand, Philippines, South Korea, Japan, India, Singapore, Lebanon, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Vietnam. Apart from the Champion, the Runner ups and different awards are awarded occasionally.

Starting from 2004, the semi-finals are held in Hong Kong and Mainland China. The final tournament's format was changed to divide contestants into three categories: Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan (港澳台 Gǎng Ào Tái); Mainland China; and the rest of Asia. However, there are usually multiple representatives from Hong Kong and Mainland China, compared to one contestant from each of the rest of the countries.

A notable feature of the Miss Hong Kong Pageant is the lack of age limit, which is rare in beauty pageant contests in general.
