The Miss Kansas Organization is pleased to announce that the 79th Miss Kansas Competition will return to Pratt, Kansas, during the first full week of June 2021.
As many events have shifted throughout the challenges of this season, we have been challenged to shift as well. We appreciate the generosity and flexibility of the Pratt community and sponsors that have made these transitions possible. The decision to return to the beginning of June is rooted in tradition through long-time community support. We are excited to welcome back the candidates for the 2021 competition and look forward to the tradition and festivities, guided by safe practices.
Pratt, Kansas, has been the home of the Miss Kansas Competition for many years and continues to open its arms to the distinguished young women vying for this opportunity of a lifetime. Please adjust your calendars and join us in Pratt on June 12th, 2021 for the 79th Miss Kansas Competition Finals.
